NAME

       cdbfasta - Creates an index file for records from a multi-fasta file.

DESCRIPTION

   Usage:
              cdbfasta <fastafile> [-o <index_file>] [-r <record_delimiter>]

              [-z <compressed_db>] [-i] [-m|-n <numkeys>|-f<LIST>]|-c|-C]

              [-w <stopwords_list>] [-s <stripendchars>] [-v]

              Creates  an  index  file  for records from a multi-fasta file.  By default (without
              -m/-n/-c/-C option), only the first space-delimited token from the defline is  used
              as a key.

              <fastafile>  is  the  multi-fasta  file  to  index; -o the index file will be named
              <index_file>; if not given,

              the index filename is database name plus the suffix '.cidx'

       -r <record_delimiter> a string of characters at the beginning of line

              marking the start of a record (default: '>')

       -Q treat input as fastq format, i.e. with '@' as record delimiter

              and with records expected to have at least 4 lines

       -z database is compressed into the file <compressed_db>

              before indexing (<fastafile> can be "-" or  "stdin"  in  order  to  get  the  input
              records from stdin)

       -s strip extraneous characters from *around* the space delimited

              tokens,  for the multikey options below (-m,-n,-f); Default <stripendchars> set is:
              '",`.(){}/[]!:;~|><+-

       -m ("multi-key" option) create hash entries pointing to

              the same record for all tokens found in the defline

       -n <numkeys> same as -m, but only takes the first <numkeys>

              tokens from the defline

       -f indexes *space* delimited tokens (fields) in the defline as given

              by LIST of fields or fields ranges (the same syntax as UNIX 'cut')

       -w <stopwordslist> exclude from indexing all the words found

              in the file <stopwordslist> (for options -m, -n and -k)

       -i do case insensitive indexing (i.e. create additional keys for

              all-lowercase tokens used for indexing from the defline

       -c for deflines in the format: db1|accession1|db2|accession2|...,

              only the first db-accession pair ('db1|accession1') is taken as key

       -C like -c, but also subsequent db|accession constructs are indexed,

              along with the full (default) token; additionally, all nrdb concatenated accessions
              found in the defline are parsed and stored (assuming 0x01 or '^|^' as separators)

       -a accession mode: like -C option, but indexes the 'accession'

              part for all 'db|accession' constructs found

       -A like -a and -C together (both accessions and 'db|accession'

              constructs are used as keys

       -v show program version and exit
