NAME

       query - query remote data servers and download

SYNOPSIS

       astquery [OPTION...] DATABASE

DESCRIPTION

       query  is  part  of  GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.19.  query is just a place holder used as a
       minimal set of files and functions necessary for a program in Gnuastro. It can be used for
       learning or as a template to build new programs.

       For  more  information, please run any of the following commands. In particular the second
       contains a very  comprehensive  explanation  of  query's  invocation:  expected  input(s),
       output(s), and a full description of all the options.

       All options and their values:
              $ astquery -P

       Inputs/Outputs and options:
              $ info astquery

       Full section in manual/book:
              $ info query

       Full Gnuastro manual/book:
              $ info gnuastro

       If  you  couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced
       Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run:

              $ info help-gnuastro
