✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is the GenomeTools manual page for gt-encseq-bitextract, and literally all it does is extract internal data from encoded sequences. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

gt encseq bitextract [option ...] [indexname]

so you call gt, then encseq, then bitextract, throw in some options if you want, and maybe hand it an indexname if you're feeling generous. iconic behavior tbh. ✨

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

here's the tea, bestie — every single flag you can pass, no gatekeeping, no cap:

  • -mirrored [yes|no] — mirrors the sequence. default is no, so if you want the mirror moment you gotta ask for it. 🙈
  • -stoppos [value] — outputs stop positions. default is undefined, so it just… doesn't do that unless you tell it to. 💀
  • -specialranges [yes|no] — outputs special ranges. default is no. lowkey shy of a flag, but she's there. 🌸
  • -bitpos [value] — extracts and displays the two bit encoding for a position. default is undefined, so specify your position or she's not showing up. ⭐
  • -dir [string] — specifies the reading direction. your options are fwd, cpl, rev, rcl, and the default is fwd. pick your lane, main character. 🔥
  • -help — displays help and exits. the classic. 🫶
  • -version — displays version information and exits. also the classic. 👑

🌈 REPORTING BUGS 🌈

found a bug? not me manifesting that, but if it happens, report it to https://github.com/genometools/genometools/issues. the devs wanna know, fr fr. 🐛

and that's the whole page, bestie — no more, no less, every detail preserved, periodt. 💖
