\U OPTIONS

for everything that's not in a subdirectory.
+The following options affect the stand-alone HTML generation mode
+\cw{-H} and the text report mode \cw{-t}.
+
+\dt \cw{-d} \e{depth} or \cw{--depth} \e{depth}
+
+\dd This option controls the maximum depth to which \cw{agedu}
+recurses when generating a text or HTML report.
+
+\lcont{
+
+In text mode, the default is 1, meaning that the report will include
+the directory given on the command line and all of its immediate
+subdirectories. A depth of two includes another level below that,
+and so on; a depth of zero means \e{only} the directory on the
+command line.
+
+In HTML mode, specifying this option switches \cw{agedu} from
+writing out a single HTML file to writing out multiple files which
+link to each other. A depth of 1 means \cw{agedu} will write out an
+HTML file for the given directory and also one for each of its
+immediate subdirectories.
+
+If you want \cw{agedu} to recurse as deeply as possible, give the
+special word \cq{max} as an argument to \cw{-d}.
+
+}
+
+\dt \cw{-o} \e{filename} or \cw{--output} \e{filename}
+
+\dd This option is used to specify an output file for \cw{agedu} to
+write its report to. In text mode or single-file HTML mode, the
+argument is treated as the name of a file. In multiple-file HTML
+mode, the argument is treated as the name of a directory: the
+directory will be created if it does not already exist, and the
+output HTML files will be created inside it.
