SYNOPSIS

gbseqget [-] [-d filename] [-i filename] [-m n/p/b] [-n] [-o filename] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

gbseqget retrieves biological sequence data from GenBank (according to an input list of GI accession numbers) and prints it out as an XML GBSet document.

OPTIONS

A summary of options is included below.

-: Print usage message
-d filename: Input file name for date list (desired accessions, one per line, followed by a blank line and a list of allowed dates, also one per line)
-i filename: Input file name for GI list (default = stdin)
-m n/p/b: Molecule type:
