 Much of the output from \fBovsdb\-client\fR is in the form of tables.
 The following options controlling output formatting:
 .
-.IP "\fB\-f \fIformat\fR"
-.IQ "\fB\-\-format=\fIformat\fR"
-Sets the type of table formatting.  The following types of
-\fIformat\fR are available:
-.RS
-.IP "\fBtable\fR (default)"
-Text-based tables with aligned columns.
-.IP "\fBhtml\fR"
-HTML tables.
-.IP "\fBcvs\fR"
-Comma-separated values as defined in RFC 4180.
-.IP "\fBjson\fR"
-JSON format as defined in RFC 4627.  The output is a sequence of JSON
-objects, each of which corresponds to one table.  Each JSON object has
-the following members with the noted values:
-.RS
-.IP "\fBcaption\fR"
-The table's caption.  This member is omitted if the table has no
-caption.
-.IP "\fBheadings\fR"
-An array with one element per table column.  Each array element is a
-string giving the corresponding column's heading.
-.IP "\fBdata\fR"
-An array with one element per table row.  Each element is also an
-array with one element per table column.  The elements of this
-second-level array are the cells that constitute the table.  Cells
-that represent OVSDB data or data types are expressed in the format
-described in the OVSDB specification; other cells are simply expressed
-as text strings.

-.IP "\fB\-d \fIformat\fR"
-.IP "\fB\-\-data=\fIformat\fR"
-Sets the formatting for cells within output tables.  The following
-types of \fIformat\fR are available:
-.RS
-.IP "\fBstring\fR (default)"
-The simple format described in \fBovs\-vsctl\fR(8).
-.IP "\fBjson\fR"
-JSON.

-The \fBjson\fR output format always outputs cells in JSON format,
-ignoring this option.

-.IP "\fB\-\-no\-heading\fR"
-This option suppresses the heading row that otherwise appears in the
-first row of table output.
-.
-.IP "\fB\-\-pretty\fR"
-By default, JSON in output is printed as compactly as possible.  This
-option causes JSON in output to be printed in a more readable
-fashion.  Members of objects and elements of arrays are printed one
-per line, with indentation.
-.IP
-This option does not affect JSON in tables, which is always printed
-compactly.
