SYNOPSIS

       index-bioc [[-path] dir [[-temp|-work|-working] dir]]

DESCRIPTION

       index-bioc  prepares  a  directory  to  hold a local BioConcepts archive, then downloads a full dump from
       NCBI's servers, organizes it into an rchive(1) trie, and fully indexes the resulting archive.

              Place the local archive in dir.

       [-temp|-work|-working] dir

ENVIRONMENT

       EDIRECT_PUBMED_MASTER
              Local archive directory to use in the absence of  -path.   Expected  to  hold  an  absolute  path;
              mandatory when not supplying a path on the command line.

              Directory  to hold intermediate subtrees in the absence of -temp|-work|-working.  Expected to hold
