lightning-decode -- Command for decoding an invoice string (low-level)
=======================================================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
**decode** *string*
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The **decode** RPC command checks and parses:
- a *bolt11* or *bolt12* string (optionally prefixed by `lightning:`
or `LIGHTNING:`) as specified by the BOLT 11 and BOLT 12
specifications.
- a *rune* as created by lightning-commando-rune(7).
It may decode other formats in future.
RETURN VALUE
------------
