# AstroTool #
A Python package for astronomical calculations in Python or on the command line.
## Installation ##
This package can be installed using `pip install astrotool`. This should automatically install the dependency
packages `astroconst`, `colored_traceback` and `numpy` if they haven't been installed already. If you are
installing by hand, you have to ensure these packages are installed as well.
