CONVERT_VCF_TO_FEATURES(1)

💖 CONVERT_VCF_TO_FEATURES(1) 💖

okay bestie, listen up — you're looking at the manual page for convert_vcf_to_features, a lil script whose whole main character energy is visually comparing bacterial, plasmid, chloroplast, or mitochondrial sequences. yes, all four. she contains multitudes. 🦋

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the very first thing this page throws at you is this:

Unknown option: help 1

and honestly? iconic. that's just what's printed there. no notes. 💀

🌸 USAGE:

convert_vcf_to_features -i INFILE -o OUTFILE

🌸 DESCRIPTION:

bestie, this script takes a VCF (Variant Call Format) file and turns it into a feature file, aka a GFF. that's the glow-up. ✨

the GFF it spits out can be used by the CGview Comparison tool. and like, actually using it is so easy — just drop that GFF file right into the 'features' directory of a CCT project. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🫶

🎀 REQUIRED ARGUMENTS: 🎀

these are not optional, babe. you need them.

• -i, --input FILE — the input VCF file (tab deliminated). hand it over. 💅
• -o, --output FILE — the name you wanna call the output file. yes, you get to name her. 🥹

🌈 EXAMPLE: 🌈

here's the whole thing in action, no cap:

convert_vcf_to_features -i input.vcf -o output.gff

look at her go. ⭐
