No description available for this parameter.

--max-records VALUE
Maximum number of policies that will be described with each call
(default
= 20, max = 50).

set by
using the environment variable 'EC2_CERT'.

--connection-timeout VALUE
Connection timeout (in seconds). The default value is '30'.

--delimiter VALUE
The delimiter to use when displaying delimited (long) results.

-H, --headers
For displaying tabular or delimited results, it includes the column
headers. For displaying XML results, it returns the HTTP headers
from the
service request, if applicable. This is off by default.
