NAME

       ConvertType - convert known data types to each other

SYNOPSIS

       astconvertt [OPTION...] InputFile1 [InputFile2] ... [InputFile4]

DESCRIPTION

       ConvertType  is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.16.  ConvertType will convert any of the
       known input formats to any other of the known formats. The output file will have the  same
       number of pixels.

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

       All options and their values:
              $ astconvertt -P

       Inputs/Outputs and options:
              $ info astconvertt

       Full section in manual/book:
              $ info ConvertType

       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:
