Lists the current extension directory that Inkscape is configured to use and
then exits. This is used for external extension to use the same configuration
as the original Inkscape installation.

+Lists all the verbs that are available in Inkscape by ID. This ID can be
+used in defining keymaps or menus. It can also be used with the --verb
+command line option.

+
+These two options work together to provide some basic scripting for
+Inkscape from the command line. They both can occur as many times as
+needed on the command line and are executed in order on every document that
+is specified.
+
+The --verb command will execute a specific verb like it
+was called from a menu or button. Dialogs will appear if that is part
+of the verb. To get a list of the verb IDs available use the --verb-list
+command line option.
+
+The --select command will cause objects that have the ID
+specified to be selected. This allows various verbs to act upon them. To
+remove all the selections use --verb=EditDeselect. The object IDs
+available are dependent on the document specified to load.

=item B<-p> I<PRINTER>, B<--print>=I<PRINTER>
Print document(s) to the specified printer using `lpr -P PRINTER'.
