FASTAQ-REVERSE_COMPLEMENT(1)

✨ NAME ✨

fastaq_reverse_complement — reverse complement all sequences 💅

okay so bestie, this is a User Commands girlie (manual section 1) and she does exactly one thing but she does it flawlessly.

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Here's the vibe, no cap. You run her like this:

fastaq_reverse_complement <infile> <outfile>

and she goes through and reverse complements all sequences. That's it. That's the whole personality. Queen of the one-job-well club 👑✨

🎀 positional arguments:

• infile — the name of the input file, aka the thing you're feeding her 🍓
• outfile — the name of the output file, aka where the glow-up lands 💖

💅 options:

• -h, --help — shows this help message and dips out (exits). the "wait what do I do again" button 🫶

ngl there's nothing below this in the original bestie, she's a standalone icon, we don't gatekeep, but there's no cross-references to share 🙈

---

⭐ reminder: <infile> and <outfile> are positional, so order literally matters, iykyk
