+- Get model info (for both tts_models and vocoder_models):
+    - Query by type/name:
+        The model_info_by_name uses the name as it from the --list_models. 
+        ```
+        $ tts --model_info_by_name "<model_type>/<language>/<dataset>/<model_name>"
+        ```
+        For example:
+        
+        ```
+        $ tts --model_info_by_name tts_models/tr/common-voice/glow-tts
+        ```
+        ```
+        $ tts --model_info_by_name vocoder_models/en/ljspeech/hifigan_v2
+        ```
+    - Query by type/idx:
+        The model_query_idx uses the corresponding idx from --list_models. 
+        ```
+        $ tts --model_info_by_idx "<model_type>/<model_query_idx>"
+        ```
+        For example:
+        
+        ```
+        $ tts --model_info_by_idx tts_models/3 
+        ```
+
