As -p adding the declared keys to the default list.

-w key[:{s/d/l}]{=/!=}value,key[:{s/d/l}]{=/!=}value,...

Where clause.
Grib messages are processed only if they match all the key/value constraints.
A valid constraint is of type key=value or key!=value.
For each key a string (key:s) or a double (key:d) or a long (key:l)
type can be specified. Default type is string.

-n namespace
