Data files

The EMBOSS database information file (db.dat) must be installed in the EMBOSS data directory and indexed. This is done automatically for typical installations.

Notes

Cross-references from a sequence entry to other resources are either "explicit" or "implicit" and are typically made from the database cross-reference (DR) line:

The links include:

# Check "Other" links are handlded - remove mention of them otherwise.

References

Warnings

None.

Diagnostic Error Messages

None.

Exit status

It exits with a status of 0.

Known bugs

None.
