NAME
tbl2asn - prepare a GenBank submission using an ASCII feature table
SYNOPSIS
tbl2asn [-] [-A str] [-C str] [-D filename] [-E] [-F str] [-G str] [-H str] [-J] [-K] [-L]
[-M str] [-N n] [-O] [-P] [-Q str] [-R] [-S] [-T] [-U] [-V str] [-W] [-X str]
[-Y filename] [-Z filename] [-a str] [-b] [-c str] [-f filename] [-g] [-h] [-i filename]
[-j str] [-k str] [-l str] [-m str] [-n str] [-o filename] [-p str] [-q] [-r str] [-s]
[-t filename] [-u] [-v] [-w filename] [-x str] [-y str] [-z]
DESCRIPTION
tbl2asn reads a template along with sequence and table files, and outputs ASN.1 for
submission to GenBank. Thus, the submitter does not need to read each set of table and
sequence files into Sequin. Furthermore, the template file can contain the organism and
submitter information common to all records, obviating the need to input these data for
each sequence/table pair.
