              filename [filename ...]

       Print  the  header(s)  of a FITS file. Optional arguments allow the desired extension(s), keyword(s), and
       output format to be specified. Note that in the case of a compressed image, the  decompressed  header  is
       shown by default.

   positional arguments:
       filename
              path to one or more files; wildcards are supported

   optional arguments:
       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -e HDU, --extension HDU
              specify  the  extension  by  name  or  number;  this  argument  can be repeated to select multiple
              extensions

       -k KEYWORD, --keyword KEYWORD
              specify a keyword; this argument can be  repeated  to  select  multiple  keywords;  also  supports
              wildcards

       -t [FORMAT], --table [FORMAT]
              print  the  header(s)  in machine-readable table format; the default format is "ascii.fixed_width"
              (can be "ascii.csv", "ascii.html", "ascii.latex", "fits", etc)

       -c, --compressed
              for compressed image data, show the true header which describes the compression  rather  than  the
              data
