mapsquare -l <placename> -q <venue keyword query> -a <Foursquare authorization token> -g

Arguments

• -l, --location (REQUIRED) A placename for the venue search (e.g. 'Salt Lake City, UT')
• -q, --query (REQUIRED) A venue type keyword (e.g. 'hardware' or 'movie theater')
• -a, --auth (REQUIRED) Foursquare authorization token. Get a convenience token for testing here (Foursquare login or signup required).
