💖 LISTOR(1e) 💖

ok so bestie, welcome to the EMBOSS Manual for Debian page for listor — yes it's section 1e, yes that's the whole vibe, and yes we are getting into it. ✨

✨ NAME ✨

listor — write a list file of the logical OR of two sets of sequences 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

listor -firstsequences seqset -secondsequences seqset [-operator list]
       -outfile outfile

listor -help

like, that's the whole shape of it. the -operator bit is the only optional one, everything else is mandatory, no cap. 💅

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

listor is a command line program from EMBOSS (“the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite”). it is part of the "Edit" command group(s). so it lives with the other editing girlies, doing the file-shuffling, list-making, sequence-comparing work. iconic behaviour honestly. 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

🧚 Input section

  • -firstsequences seqset — your first set of sequences. the originals. the ones showing up first to the party. 💜
  • -secondsequences seqset — your second set of sequences. the other ones. the comparison squad. 🩷

🌈 Additional section

  • -operator list — the logical operator, and honestly this is the main character option. the following logical operators combine the sequences in the following ways:
    • OR — gives all that occur in one set or the other 🫶
    • AND — gives only those which occur in both sets 💞
    • XOR — gives those which only occur in one set or the other, but not in both 🤯
    • NOT — gives those which occur in the first set except for those that also occur in the second 🚫

Default value: OR

not me lowkey loving that XOR is the chaotic one. it's giving "if you're in both groups you're uninvited" energy. 💀

🦋 Output section

  • -outfile outfile — the list of sequence names will be written to this list file. yes bestie, that's the output, that's the whole point, we're making a list and writing it here. ⭐

💀 BUGS 💀

found a bug? 😭 don't suffer in silence, report it:

they want to know, fr fr. 🙈

👀 SEE ALSO 👀

listor is fully documented via the tfm(1) system. so if you want the deep lore, that's where it lives. iykyk. 📚

this manual page was autogenerated from an Ajax Control Definition of the EMBOSS package. it can be redistributed under the same terms as EMBOSS itself. periodt. 💅

ok that's the whole page bestie, hope you slayed your sequence lists. this was EMBOSS 6.4.0, dated 05/11/2012 — and yeah, the manual itself is LISTOR(1e). go make that -outfile, ily, bye! 🎀🦋💖
