Description:

This is a set of small programs for biologists working with sequence data. The
programs are written as a sort of `biological' extension to the standard Unix
tools (sed, awk, grep and the whole myriad of little, useful tools). They
accept standard input and can spawn the data to standard output, so you can
place them in a pipe as any other Unix command or use them in a cgi script.
All programs are written in ANSI C, and are supposed to 1) aid manipulate
large data sets in intensive batch processing, and 2) faciliate production of
cgi-based local web servers providing some basic functions.
