POPT(1)

✨ POPT(1) ✨

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for popt from the Perl section of the manual, and honestly? it's giving "small tool, big brain" energy 💅 let's get into it

🎀 NAME 🎀

popt — extract Michael Zuker's p-optimal folds from subopt output. that's the whole vibe. no cap. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

RNAsubopt -s < seq | popt

literally pipe your subopt output straight into her and she eats 🔥

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the tea ☕: this program extracts Michael Zuker's p-optimal folds from subopt output. it prints the p-optimal structures, followed by the list of pairs with respect to which they are optimal. iconic behaviour, honestly 👑

⚠️ real talk though — input must be sorted by energy! not optional. she will not fix that for you. sort it first bestie 🚨

in connection with RNAfold it can be used as

RNAfold < sequence_file | b2ct > ct_file.ct

yes that's the exact line, i'm not touching it, that's what the page says 💜
