💖 COMET-MS 💖

okay bestie, welcome to COMET-MS(1) — that's the manual page for the comet-ms command, living in the General Commands Manual, section 1. pull up a chair, we're doing science 💅

✨ NAME ✨

comet-ms — the comet-ms package ships the comet-ms binary, and that binary does MS/MS database searches. that's the whole job description, she's focused 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

comet-ms

and here's the cutest part: running comet-ms with no arguments outputs a helping synopsis. she just tells you what's up. no notes, no drama 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so this manual page documents briefly the comet-ms source package. brief. like a lil summary. we're not writing a novel here, we're giving you the vibe ✨

Comet is an open source tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) sequence database search engine. say that three times fast, i dare you 😭 what she actually does: she identifies peptides by searching MS/MS spectra against sequences present in protein sequence databases. spectra go in, peptides come out. she ate, fr fr 🔥

now, real talk — this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. so we made one. we did that. you're welcome 🫶

the comet-ms source package is what's used to create the comet-ms binary program. source package ➡️ binary program. pipeline slay 👑

lowkey important reminder: this page is a brief intro to the comet-ms source package, not the full lore of every flag and option. the manpage only claims what it claims, and i'm not out here making stuff up 🙈

kisses, and that's a wrap on COMET-MS(1) from the General Commands Manual 💕 she's giving classic Debian manpage energy, no date listed, just vibes and a GPL license. bye bestie, go search some spectra 🌸🧚
