...Display AST Data

If you have a pointer to any AST Object, you can display the data stored in that Object in textual form as follows:

astShow( wcsinfo );

Here, we have used a pointer to the FrameSet which we read earlier ([*]). The result is written to the program's standard output stream. This can be very useful during debugging.

For more details about using astShow, see [*]. For information about interpreting the output, also see [*].
