+*-C*, *--counter* _label_:_filter_expr_::
+Define a counter used in *--summary* output. *lsfd* makes a
+counter named _label_. During collect information, *lsfd* counts files
+satisfying _filter_expr_, and stores the counted number to the
+counter named _label_. *lsfd* applies filters defined with *--filter*
+options before couring; files excluded by the filters are not counted.

+_label_ should not include _{_ nor _:_. You can define multiple

+*--summary*[=_when_]::
+This option controls summary lines output. The optional argument _when_
+can be *never*, *always* or *only*. If the _when_ argument is omitted,
+it defaults to *"only"*.
++
+The summary reports counters. A counter comes from a label and an
+integer value.  *--counter* is the option for defining a counter.  If
+a user defines no counter, *lsfd* uses the definitions of pre-defined
+built-in counters (default counters) to make the summary output.
++
+CAUTION: Using *--summary* and *--json* may make the output broken. Only combining *--summary*=*only* and *--json* is valid.
