       avahi-browse [options] --all

DESCRIPTION
       Browse for mDNS/DNS-SD network services and browsing domains using the
       Avahi daemon.

OPTIONS
       Specify a DNS-SD service type (e.g. _http._tcp) to browse for on the
       command line, or -a to browse for all available service types. Items
       that appear on the network are prefixed with "+", items that disappear
       are prefixed with "-". If --resolve is passed items that are resolved
       are prefixed with "=".

       -a | --all
	      Browse for all service types registered on the LAN, not just the
	      one specified on the command line.

       -D | --browse-domains
	      Browse for browsing domains instead for services. avahi-browse-
	      domains is equivalent to avahi-browse --browse-domains

       -d | --domain= DOMAIN
	      Browse in the specified domain. If omitted avahi-browse will
	      browse in the default browsing domain (usually: local)

       -v | --verbose
	      Enable verbose mode.

       -t | --terminate
	      Terminate after dumping a more or less complete list.

       -c | --cache
	      Terminate after dumping all entries available in the cache.

       -l | --ignore-local
	      Ignore local services, show only remote services.

       -r | --resolve
	      Automatically resolve services found.

       -f | --no-fail
	      Don't fail if the daemon is not found running. Instead, wait
	      until it appears. If it disconnects, try to reconnect.

       -p | --parsable
	      Make output easily parsable for usage in scripts. If enabled
	      fields are separated by semicolons (;), service names are
	      escaped. It is recommended to combine this with --no-db-lookup.

       -k | --no-db-lookup
	      Don't lookup services types in service type database.

       -b | --dump-db
	      Dump the service type database (may be combined with -k)

       -h | --help
	      Show help.

       -V | --version
	      Show version information.
