Hi,


Is there any way in which one can read a DNA sequence directly from the
command line (that is
as a string input argument) rather than from a file? I am especially
interested in finding repeats,
inverted repeats etc. (e.g. 'einverted', 'etandem' EMBOSS apps). Instead
of creating a FASTA file
for each query sequene, I would like to read the sequence directly from
the command line. Is this possible?


From http://emboss.sourceforge.net/docs/faq.html


A) The "filename" is really the sequence. This is a quick and easy way of 
reading in a short fragment of sequence without having to enter it into a file.

For example:

   % program -seq asis::ATGGTGAGGAGAGTTGTGATGAGA
