   cacheselect[Query]
       Selects data from the cache; you can use any other option behind this.

   cachedelete[Query]
       Instead of searching for this element, the element is deleted from the database.  Needs —cache.

   cachelist
       List all items in the database (including the artist / album / title / type).  Needs —cache.

              glyrc cover --artist SomeBand --album SomeAlbum

       DB:

              # Write found items to cache; create it if not existent
              glyrc lyrics -a A -b B --cache /tmp

              # List all in the cache
              glyrc cache list --cache /tmp

              # Delete artist/album
              glyrc cache delete cover -a Equilibrium -b Sagas --cache /tmp

              # Search for two items in cache and print them
