1. Forced use of the high temperature.

2. Forced use of the low temperature.

3. Automatic temperature calculation, the default behavior.

EXAMPLE

# Beijing lat/long.
wlsunset -l 39.9 -L 116.3

Greater precision than one decimal place serves no purpose (https://xkcd.com/2170/) other than padding the command-line.
