🎀 NAME 🎀

ds2pme — convert PubMed DocumentSummary XML to Pubmed-entry ASN.1 text ✨

No cap, that's the whole vibe: it takes one format and turns it into another. Bestie behavior only.

📜 SYNOPSIS 📜

ds2pme [[-]xml|[-]asn]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so listen, ds2pme is literally the middleman you need. It reads one or more Pubmed DocumentSummary XML documents from standard input and writes the corresponding Pubmed-entry ASN.1 text to standard output. That's it. That's the whole job. It's giving pipe-friendly icon behavior. 🫶

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • [-]xml — keep the intermediate Pubmed-entry XML format around. Like, don't convert it, just retain it. 💅
  • [-]asn — convert to ASN.1. This one is the default, so if you don't say anything, this is what you get. Periodt. ✨
Not me pointing out that the leading - is optional in both of these, exactly like the synopsis shows. The brackets are doing the most, but they're valid. 😌

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

Go read those too, bestie. They're part of the friend group. 💖
