 <!-- globalinfo-start -->

 * Valid options are: <br><br>
 *
 * <pre>-D &lt;int&gt; (property: debugLevel)
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The greater the number the more additional info the scheme may output to
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the console (0 = off).
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;default: 0
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;minimum: 0
 * </pre>
 *
 * <pre>-name &lt;java.lang.String&gt; (property: name)
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The name of the actor.
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;default: WekaAttributeIterator
 * </pre>
 *
 * <pre>-annotation &lt;adams.core.base.BaseText&gt; (property: annotations)
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The annotations to attach to this actor.
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;default:
 * </pre>
 *
 * <pre>-skip (property: skip)
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;as it is.
 * </pre>
 *
 * <pre>-stop-flow-on-error (property: stopFlowOnError)
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If set to true, the flow gets stopped in case this actor encounters an error;
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; useful for critical actors.
 * </pre>
 *
 * <pre>-range &lt;java.lang.String&gt; (property: range)
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The range of attributes to iterate over; A range is a comma-separated list
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;of single 1-based indices or sub-ranges of indices ('start-end'); the following
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;placeholders can be used as well: first, second, third, last_2, last_1,
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;last.
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;default: first-last
 * </pre>
 *
 * <pre>-regexp &lt;adams.core.base.BaseRegExp&gt; (property: regExp)
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The regular expression used to further limit the attribute set.
 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;default: .*
