I use the following command:

And receive the following error:
Error: Argument 'seq01' : Too many parameters 2/1
...the file that holds the chromosome sequences are named seq00.fa,
seq01.fa, seq02.fa ... so on.
Any sort of help is greatly appreciated.
This is one of those Unix command line issues ... you need quotes around
the "*.fa" (single or double quotes will do). The shell expands *.fa
into the list of filenames before EMBOSS sees the results, and the
second one is your "extra parameter".
