| serial number | The serial number, if given, must be the first option
on the line. The special character '?' can be used as
wild cards to match any digit. The character '*' can
be used to match any number of digits. You can also
use '[123]' to match any of the digits 1, 2
or 3. This kind of thing can be real handy when you
are looking at a blurry picture on a web site and can
only make out some of the digits, and you aren't sure
if one of the digits is a 3, or an 8.

| grade | Will cause serial number ranges not to be
listed. Just the grade information will be displayed. When you are using wild cards in the serial numbers or
just using the other selection options, this option will make the
output much shorter. |
