-                Specify recipient. May be age or ssh pubkey.
-                May be specified multiple times for multiple pubkeys.
-                See https://github.com/FiloSottile/age
-        -o, --output [ path dir ]
-                Specify output directory to save logs. This option is required
-                to save log data.
-        -p, --process-string [ filter command ] [ output file extension] 
-                Specify how to create and name a processed version of the stdin.
-                For example, if stdin is 'nmea' location data:
-                
-                -p "gpsbabel -i nmea -f - -o gpx -F - " ".gpx"
-
-                This option would cause the stdin to 'bklog' to be piped into
-                the 'gpsbabel' command, interpreted as 'nmea' data, converted
-                into 'gpx' format, and then appended to the output tar file
-                as a file with a '.gpx' extension.
-                This option may be specified multiple times in order to output
-                results of multiple different processing methods.
-        -l, --label [ string ]
-                Specify a label to be included in all output file names.
-                Ex: 'location' if stdin is location data.
-        -w, --store-raw [ file extension ]
-                Specify file extension of file within output tar that contains
-                raw stdin data. The default behavior is to always save raw stdin
-                data in a '.stdin' file. Example usage when 'bklog' receives
-                'nmea' data from 'gpspipe -r':
-
-                -w ".nmea"
-
-                Stdin data is saved in a '.nmea' file within the output tar.
-        -W, --no-store-raw
-                Do not store raw stdin in output tar.
-        -c, --compress
-                Compress output with gzip (before encryption if enabled).
-        -z, --time-zone
-                Specify time zone. (ex: "America/New_York")
-        -t, --temp-dir [path dir]
-                Specify parent directory for temporary working directory.
-                Default: "/dev/shm"

+                Encrypt output.
+        -r, --recipient [ string pubkey ]
+                Specify recipient. May be age or ssh pubkey.
+                May be specified multiple times for multiple pubkeys.
+                See https://github.com/FiloSottile/age
+        -o, --output [ path dir ]
+                Specify output directory to save logs. This option is required
+                to save log data.
+        -p, --process-string [ filter command ] [ output file extension] 
+                Specify how to create and name a processed version of the stdin.
+                For example, if stdin is 'nmea' location data:
+                
+                -p "gpsbabel -i nmea -f - -o gpx -F - " ".gpx"
+
+                This option would cause the stdin to 'bklog' to be piped into
+                the 'gpsbabel' command, interpreted as 'nmea' data, converted
+                into 'gpx' format, and then appended to the output tar file
+                as a file with a '.gpx' extension.
+                This option may be specified multiple times in order to output
+                results of multiple different processing methods.
+        -l, --label [ string ]
+                Specify a label to be included in all output file names.
+                Ex: 'location' if stdin is location data.
+        -w, --store-raw [ file extension ]
+                Specify file extension of file within output tar that contains
+                raw stdin data. The default behavior is to always save raw stdin
+                data in a '.stdin' file. Example usage when 'bklog' receives
+                'nmea' data from 'gpspipe -r':
+
+                -w ".nmea"
+
+                Stdin data is saved in a '.nmea' file within the output tar.
+        -W, --no-store-raw
+                Do not store raw stdin in output tar.
+        -c, --compress
+                Compress output with gzip (before encryption if enabled).
+        -z, --time-zone
+                Specify time zone. (ex: "America/New_York")
+        -t, --temp-dir [path dir]
+                Specify parent directory for temporary working directory.
+                Default: "/dev/shm"
+        -R, --recipient-dir [path dir]
+                Specify directory containing files whose first lines are
+                to be interpreted as pubkey strings (see '-r' option). Only
+                one directory may be specified.
+        -b, --buffer-ttl [integer]
+                Specify custom buffer period in seconds (default: 300 seconds)
+        -B, --script-ttl [time element string]
+                Specify custom script time-to-live in seconds (default: "day")
+                Valid values: "day", "hour"
+
+    EXAMPLE: (bash script lines)
+    $ gpspipe -r | /bin/bash bklog -v -e -c -z "UTC" -t "/dev/shm" \
