DESCRIPTION
       cups-config is the CUPS program configuration  utility.  It  should  be
       used  by application developers to determine the necessary command-line
       options for the compiler and linker, as well as  determining  installa-
       tion directories for filters, configuration files, and drivers.

       The   --api-version   command   displays   the   current   API  version
       (major.minor).

       The --cflags command displays the necessary compiler options.

       The --datadir command displays the default CUPS data directory.

       The --help command displays the program usage message.

       The --ldflags command displays the necessary linker options.

       The --libs command displays the necessary librarys  to  link  to.   The
       --image option adds the CUPS imaging library to the list.  The --static
       option shows the static  libraries  instead  of  the  default  (shared)
       libraries.

       The  --serverbin  command  displays  the default CUPS binary directory,
       where filters and backends are stored.

       The --serverroot command displays the default CUPS  configuration  file
       directory.

       The  --version  command  displays  the  full version number of the CUPS
       installation (major.minor.patch).
