Getting file info (out-of date, needs resolve) with P4 command line client

P4V provides information about each checked out file such as whether it is at the latest revision (out-of-date files have a yellow circle), and whether it needs to be resolved (question mark). Is there a way to get this info using the P4 command line client?

I've tried "p4 describe " and "p4 status", but these do not provide the info I'm looking for. Describe lists which revision each file is at, but not whether it is at the latest revision.

To see whether a file needs to be synced:

p4 sync -n FILE

To see whether a file needs to be resolved:

p4 resolve -n FILE

To see whether a file is open:

p4 opened FILE

To see all the revisions of a file:

p4 filelog FILE

etc

You can also do:

p4 fstat <flags> FILE

to get a giant dump of information about a file (formatted for easy parsing into a dictionary rather than human readability).

For a full list of commands, see:

p4 help commands

For more information on a particular command:

p4 help COMMAND
