DESCRIPTION

       asn2gb  converts  descriptions  of biological sequences from NCBI's ASN.1 format to one of
       several flat-file formats, and is the successor to asn2ff(1).

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.

       -A accession
              Accession to fetch; may take the form accession,complexity,flags  where  complexity
              should  normally be 0 and a flags value of -1 enables fetching of external features
              (as with the legacy -F option)

       -F     Fetch remote annotations (equivalent to specifying -A accession,0,-1)
