A lot of work to change the quotes. I'm starting to feel a little bad about sending the message.
In any case, well done!

Rafa.

Thank you so much for highlighting this!

This was the old GNU style of quoting, you can still see it in the
output of 'gawk --help' for example.

But after looking into the GNU Coding Standards again, I found the
page below where they also recommend using apostrophe for both opening
and closing a quote:

https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Quote-Characters.html

Standrds compliance is very important for me, so I just implemented it
in the full Gnuastro source:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnuastro.git/commit/?id=b9c48d00b5

Thanks again for raising this important point, I am happy it is now fixed :-).

Cheers,
Mohammad

Summary:
Typo reporting  `--hdu=0' (or `-h0')

gnuastro version:
0.11

test image set:
https://cloud.iaa.csic.es/public.php?service=files&t=9344cdb85c640c7dd74446d8c266591d command:
aststatistics 019_00.fits

result :
To fix the problem please add `--hdu=0' (or `-h0') to your command when calling Gnuastro's programs. For library users, please give a value of "0" to the HDU argument.

question:
Two different types of quotation marks are used to surround a single message.

suggestion:
Use just one type of quotation marks, for example neutral quotation marks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotation_mark) :

'--hdu=0' (or '-h0')
