💖 GETMESH 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the getmesh page from the NCBI Tools User's Manual — yes that NCBI, the biotech girlies' fave. sit down, grab a boba, we're extracting MeSH terms and we're gonna slay while we do it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

getmesh — get MeSH terms from a Medline entry 🧬

like. the whole job. one line. iconic.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

getmesh [-] [-b] -i filename -o filename

that's the vibe check right there. short, sweet, and every single flag is doing its little job 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so getmesh is a simple program — and when I say simple I mean it is NOT doing the most, it is just here to do one thing and do it gorgeously — and that thing is getting mesh terms from a Medline entry 🌸

that's it. that's the description. it's giving minimalism. it's giving "I know my purpose." we respect her 🫶

✨ OPTIONS ✨

here's the summary of options, bestie, and yes every single one is listed, no gatekeeping here 💖

• - — prints a usage message. just the dash. no letters. no vibes. it will simply tell you how to use her.
• -b — (ASN.1) the input data is binary rather than ASCII text 👑 so like, if your file is giving raw binary energy instead of readable-text energy, this is the flag for you.
• -i filename — the input data 📥 the thing you're reading from, the source, the main character.
• -o filename — the output list 📤 where the MeSH terms go to live their best life.

ngl bestie, -i and -o are kinda mandatory in that synopsis up there. don't forget them, fr fr 😭
