[artemis-users] gff file not readable by ACT version 2 stable

[Phillip San Miguel]

   I wrote script to convert cross_match output into gff for use with 
ACT. Seems to work fine for ACT version 2 [beta] but the stable release 
of ACT version 2 does not display the gff information, nor is the gff 
listed under "Entries" after loading using "File:Read and Entry".
   I presume something is non-standard in the gff I'm generating but I 
can't see what it would be. Here are the first 4 lines of a gff file 
that won't load:

5MCconcat    fuzznuc    RT5E    59441    59461    21.000    +    .    
Sequence "5MCconcat.1"
5MCconcat    fuzznuc    RT5E    70888    70908    21.000    +    .    
Sequence "5MCconcat.2"
5MCconcat    fuzznuc    RT_RNAseH    62560    62622    63.000    -    
.    Sequence "5MCconcat.1"
5MCconcat    fuzznuc    RT_RNAseH    108752    108820    69.000    -    
.    Sequence "5MCconcat.2"
5MCconcat    fuzznuc    CCHC    58125    58166    42.000    +    .    
Sequence "5MCconcat.1"

The fields are all tab delimited, although my mail client converted the 
tabs to spaces.

   Any suggestions on what might be wrong?
