+ Usage: fits2jpeg [options] <fits_file>
+
+ Options are:
 
-  Options are:
     -h help
 
     -s <scale_type>
-       scale for output image intensity. Valid arguments are:
-
-         linear         for linear scaling, default
+       scale for output image, where <scale_type> can be:
+         linear         Linear scale, default
          sqroot         for square root scale
          square         for quadratic scale
          cubic          for cubic scale
          log            for log scale
+         normalize      for linear histogram stretch
+         equalize       for histogram equalization
+
+    -r <min>:<max>
+       Clip output image to min-max range. Eg:
+         0:100          Use only values in the range 0-100
+         100:0          Same as above, but negative image
+           :10          Clip everything above 10
+         10:            Clip everything below 10
+
+    -n
+       Negate the image.
+
+    -q <value>
+       jpeg quality factor. Defines the jpeg encoding quality
+       Valid range: 0-100, default value: 100, which is for
+       best quality (and largest file size).
 
-    -e <operation>
-       Imaghe enhancement operations. Valid arguments are:
+    -z <zoomfactor>
+       Resize/Scale output image by <zoomfactor>. Eg:
+         0.5            Shrink output to half of input
+         2.0            Magnify output to double the size
 
-         equalize       perform histogram equalization
-         normalize      perform a linear contrast stretch
-                        (use cutoffs at 1% and 99% for image data)
 
   Output will be written to <fits_file_root>.jpg. For eg.,
