πŸ’– EMBOSSDATA πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to embossdata β€” that's the 1e manual page from the EMBOSS Manual for Debian ✨ literally the lil tool that goes find and retrieve EMBOSS data files for you. no cap. 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

embossdata β€” find and retrieve EMBOSS data files πŸ”πŸ“


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

embossdata [-showall toggle] -fetch boolean -filename string
           -reject selection [-outfile outfile]

embossdata -help

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so embossdata is a command line program straight out of EMBOSS β€” that's β€œthe European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite” πŸ‘‘πŸ’…. it's part of the "Utils" command group(s), which is giving little-helpful-toolbox energy and honestly? we love that for it.


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

πŸ’œ Input section

  • -showall toggle β€” a toggle, bestie. that's the whole vibe.
  • -fetch boolean β€” boolean moment. yes or no, that's it.
  • -filename string β€” this one's important, listen up πŸ‘‚. it specifies the name of the file that should be fetched into the current directory or searched for in all of the directories that EMBOSS programs search when they're looking for a data file. and here's the kicker: the name of the file is not altered when it's fetched. so it stays exactly what you named it, periodt.

πŸ”₯ Advanced section

  • -reject selection β€” this specifies the names of the sub-directories of the EMBOSS data directory that should be ignored when displaying data directories πŸ™ˆ. default value: 3, 5, 6. yes those numbers, exactly those.

⭐ Output section

  • -outfile outfile β€” this specifies the name of the file that the results of a search for a file in the various data directories get written to. by default tho? those results go straight to the screen (stdout) πŸ–₯️. default value: stdout.

πŸ’€ BUGS πŸ’€
