💖 NEWSEQ(1e) — the EMBOSS manual, but make it bestie-coded 💖

okay so real talk, this is newseq(1e) from the EMBOSS Manual for Debian and it's literally the glow-up your terminal needed. it lives in the 1e manual section, it's giving main character energy, and by the end of this page you're gonna know exactly how to hand-type a sequence into a file like the icon you are. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

newseq — bestie, it creates a sequence file from a sequence you just... type in. that's it. that's the whole vibe. ⌨️💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

newseq -name string -description string -type list -sequence string
       -outseq seqout

newseq -help

two modes, no drama: either you're making a sequence, or you're asking for -help. periodt. 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

newseq is a command line program from EMBOSS (that's “the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite”, and yes it's as iconic as it sounds 🌈). it's part of the "Edit" command group(s), so it's basically in the editing clique. 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

🌸 Input section 🌸

  • -name string — this is the name of the sequence, and ngl it should be a single word that you'll use to identify the sequence. keep punctuation in it to zero (or like, very few) characters. no cap, one word, clean aesthetic. ✨
  • -description string — go off, type any description of the sequence that you require. this is your moment. 📝
  • -type list — Default value: N
  • -sequence string — the sequence itself, the actual star of the show. but here's the tea 😭: because of the limitation of the operating system, you will only be able to type in a short sequence of (typically) 250 characters, or so. the keyboard will beep at you when you have reached this limit and you will not be able to press the RETURN/ENTER key until you have deleted a few characters. yes, the computer is being passive-aggressive about it. rude but true. 💀

🎀 Output section 🎀

  • -outseq seqout — this is where the sequence file you just made goes. 👑

💀 BUGS 💀

found a bug? don't suffer in silence, bestie. bugs can be reported to the Debian Bug Tracking system (http://bugs.debian.org/emboss), or you can go straight to the EMBOSS developers (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93650&atid=605031). tell them the vibes were off, they'll handle it. 🐛🫶
