record Pointer to the bl_fastx_t structure
Return the length of the description string of a FASTA or FASTQ record. The
record must be initialized with bl_fastx_init(3) and populated by
bl_fastx_read(3) or other means. Previously used variables may be reused to
process another record in the same format (FASTA or FASTQ) or reinitialized by
bl_fastx_free(3);
