This program allows you to inspect the current value of NixOS
configuration options.  It can also generate a basic NixOS
configuration file.

Options:

  -i | --install        Write a template NixOS configuration file to
                        ${mountPoint:+$mountPoint/}$NIXOS_CONFIG.
  -v | --value          Display the current value, based on your
                        configuration.
  -d | --description    Display the default value, the example and the
                        description.
  -l | --lookup         Display where the option is defined and where it
                        is declared.
  --xml                 Print an XML representation of the result.
                        Implies -vdl options.
  --help                Show this message.

Environment variables affecting $0:

  \$mountPoint          Path to the target file system.
  \$NIXOS_CONFIG        Path to your configuration file.
