y range
Range of y coordinate values. If 0, print all rows. If reading multiple files, this must be on the command line before the filenames. Note that range combination of "0 0" only works in the presence of -l or -g. (Range added in WCSTools 2.6.3)
-g number
Print only pixels the values of which are greater than num. Coordinates are printed with each pixel value. (added in WCSTools 2.6.10)
