NAME

       asn2idx - index ASN.1 Bioseq-sets for fast access to individual sequences

SYNOPSIS

       asn2idx [-] [-b] [-d dir] [-f filter] -p path [-r path] [-t] [-x str]

DESCRIPTION

       asn2idx  indexes  ASN.1  Bioseq-sets (such as GenBank release files) to speed retrieval of
       the individual sequences they contain.  For each file that  it  processes,  it  yields  an
       output file in the same directory with the extension .idx.
