Subject: manpage: Don't list specific output formats, mention -L.
X-Git-Url: https://sigrok.org/gitweb/?p=sigrok-cli.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=c1865eb5e7d89708754580f693c9cbf7c4ef035d

manpage: Don't list specific output formats, mention -L.

The list is going to be outdated eventually (e.g. "gnuplot" no longer
exists), it's better to just mention that -L can be used to get a list.
