General Options:

   -v, --verbose               Give more output. Option is additive, and 
can be
                               used up to 3 times.
   -V, --version               Show version and exit.
   -q, --quiet                 Give less output.
   --log-file <path>           Path to a verbose non-appending log, that 
only
                               logs failures. This log is active by 
default at
                               C:\Users\Mark\pip\pip.log.
   --log <path>                Path to a verbose appending log. This log is
                               inactive by default.
   --proxy <proxy>             Specify a proxy in the form
                               [user:passwd@]proxy.server:port.
   --timeout <sec>             Set the socket timeout (default 15 seconds).
   --exists-action <action>    Default action when a path already exists:

   --cert <path>               Path to alternate CA bundle.

Having digested the above try 'pip list'.
