GFFUTILS-CLI_COMMON(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

gffutils-cli_common — bestie, this is the one that finds child features that are in common 💖

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the vibe. You run this thing from the gffutils-cli crew, and the usage looks like this:

usage: gffutils-cli common [-h] db

and what it does is identify child features that are in common — like, for example, common exons across multiple isoforms 🧬✨ Like when several isoforms are all sharing the same little exon and you're like "wait, which ones are y'all both using??" — yeah. That. Iconic behaviour honestly. 👑

---

🌸 positional arguments: 🌸

• db — the database you wanna use, periodt. BUT — and this is the important part, bestie — if you hand it a GFF or GTF file instead for this argument, it'll go ahead and create a database for you 🫶. It's giving generous. It's giving helpful. It is also going to take some time — literally several minutes 😭 — so the move is to create one ahead of time so you're not just sitting there watching it cook. no cap.

---

💅 options: 💅

• -h, --help — shows this help message and dips. that's it, that's the whole option. slay ✨

fr fr, that's the entire option list. short and sweet, we love to see it 💖
