stycho

stycho finds all of the Hipparcos Tycho Catalog objects in a specified region of the sky and lists their sky positions or lists specific entries in that catalog. Output is to standard out, unless the -w flag is set, in which case it goes to objectname.iras or search.iras. It is a link to scat. This program automatically senses the byte order of the catalog and, if necessary, swaps it to match the byte order of the machine on which it is executing.

Set the environment variable WCS_BINDIR to the directory containing the file tychora.
