CODONW-TRANSL(1)

💖 codonw-transl(1) — the manual page, but make it cute 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the CODONW-TRANSL page from the User Commands section of the manual. yes it's a real manpage, yes it's short, and yes we are gonna make it iconic. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

codonw-transl — conceptual translation of DNA to amino acid

like… it takes your DNA and turns it into amino acids?? conceptually?? the way that biology said "let's just vibe it out" 😭💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

codonw-transl inputfile outputfile bulkoutputfile <options>

three files in, bestie: one to read, two to write, and then whatever <options> you're feeling. no cap. 🌸

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

okay so here's the tea 🍓: codonw-transl is literally just a shortcut to accessing the codonw(1) executable — except it comes with the 'conceptual translation of DNA to amino acid' option already preselected for you. like it already picked your outfit. you're welcome. 💖

that option is -transl, so what you're actually getting is:

codonw -transl ...

boom. that's the whole trick. ✨

and the way the command line arguments work — the order, the placement, all of it — follows the order of arguments in codonw itself. so like, don't get cute with the arrangement, bestie. codonw's order is the blueprint. 👑
