              output a PNG format file

       -j, --jpg
              output a JPEG format file

       -x, --x=N
              X center coordinate

       -y, --y=N
              Y center coordinate

       --x0=N X corner coordinate

       --y0=N Y corner coordinate

       -r, --rows=N
              number of rows (height)

       -c, --columns=N
              number of columns (width)

       --all  extract a cutout of the same size as the input image

       --linear-scale
              output in linear scale [default]

       -l, --log-scale
              output in log scale

       -s, --sqrt-scale
              output in square root scale

       -e, --histeq-scale
              histogram equalized output

       --asinh-scale
              asinh equalized output

       -i, --invert
              invert output colors

       --palette=name
              output palette name (png output only)

       --factor=value
              multiply image by value

       --rate scale image by exposure time factor

       --autoscale=percent
              percent of histogram to include

       If percent is a single value it is interpreted as
              the  percentage of the histogram to include.  If percent is two values separated by
              a comma it is interpreted as the lower and upper bounds of the histogram to include
              (eg. --autoscale=1.5,98.5)

       --autoscale-min=percent
              lower bound percentage of histogram to include

       --autoscale-max=percent
              upper bound percentage of histogram to include

       --min=value
              image value to use for scale minimum

       --max=value
              image value to use for scale maximum

       The value for --min or --max may be either one value to
              be  used  for  all images (eg. --min=0), or one value for each image separated by a
              comma (eg. --min=0,0,0)

       --red=file
              filename to be used in red channel of color image

       --green=file
              filename to be used in green channel of color image

       --blue=file
              filename to be used in blue channel of color image

       --zoom=factor
              zoom input image by positive multiplicative factor

       --align
              use WCS information in header to align images

       --compass
              add a WCS compass to the image

   Supported palettes:
              gray heat cool rainbow red green blue
