Sorry,

Here is the attachment.
The whole cleanup process could be done with pm;y SED calls I'm sure,
but would be beyond my SED comfort level.

With respect to using info in the FASTA description field, the intent and 
partial solution can now be explained.
The top level intent is to avoid overlapping genes, in a statiscal analysis 
being pl anned.
The 3rd & 4th lines below from an "infoseq -nocolumns" whole genome retreival. 
They report an overlap, i.e., 
the DNA gyrase A is overlapped by seryl-tRNA: serly_begin=7294 - 
7322=gyrase_end < 0

DnaJ domain protein 1828..2760(+) [Mycoplasma genitalium G37]
DNA gyrase subunit B 2845..4797(+) [Mycoplasma genitalium G37]
DNA gyrase subunit A 4812..7322(+) [Mycoplasma genitalium G37]
seryl-tRNA synthetase 7294..8547(+) [Mycoplasma genitalium G37]
thymidylate kinase 8551..9183(+) [Mycoplasma genitalium G37]

In a few microbes I've checked, about a quarter of the genes have some putative 
overlap. These could contaminate the proteins/codon_usage statistical analysis 
being planned. Thus I wished an enmass way of recogizing the overlapping genes.
A non-elegant fix has been worked out.

Pulling the dataset into a spreadsheet, spaces in the description field were  
next replaced with >< :
DnaJ><domain><protein><1828..2760(+)><[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
DNA><gyrase><subunit><B><2845..4797(+)><[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
DNA><gyrase><subunit><A><4812..7322(+)><[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
seryl-tRNA><synthetase><7294..8547(+)><[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
thymidylate 8551..9183(+)><[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]

Next ><[ is replace by "to be field seperator"  |[
DNA><polymerase><III,><beta><subunit><686..1828(+)|[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
DnaJ><domain><protein><1828..2760(+)|[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
DNA><gyrase><subunit><B><2845..4797(+)|[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
DNA><gyrase><subunit><A><4812..7322(+)|[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
seryl-tRNA><synthetase><7294..8547(+)|[Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37]
and the file saved as:   Myc637000176m.csv 

to get rid of >< in the terminal common  [Mycoplasma><genitalium><G37], there 
was done 
$  cut -d"[" -f1 Myc637000176m.csv > Myc637000176m2.csv
resulting in :
DNA><polymerase><III,><beta><subunit><686..1828(+)|
DnaJ><domain><protein><1828..2760(+)|
DNA><gyrase><subunit><B><2845..4797(+)|
DNA><gyrase><subunit><A><4812..7322(+)|
seryl-tRNA><synthetase><7294..8547(+)|

internals are next mostly deleted with:
sed -e 's/<.*>//g'  Myc637000176m2.csv > Myc637000176m3.csv
resulting in:
DNA><686..1828(+)|
DnaJ><1828..2760(+)|
DNA><2845..4797(+)|
DNA><4812..7322(+)|
seryl-tRNA><7294..8547(+)|

The single remmaining >< is replaced with potential separator | 
sed -e 's/></|/g'  Myc637000176m3.csv > Myc637000176m4.csv
resulting in:
DNA|686..1828(+)|
DnaJ|1828..2760(+)|
DNA|2845..4797(+)|
DNA|4812..7322(+)|
seryl-tRNA|7294..8547(+)|
BASICALLY, the clever work is now done, and the rest is more routine 
manipulation.

A cleanup was done with:
sed -e 's/)|//g'  Myc637000176m4.csv > Myc637000176m5.csv
sed -e 's/(/|/g'  Myc637000176m5.csv > Myc637000176m6.csv
together changing the  (+)|  to   |+   ,that is a separated field

The replacement of the residual  ..  with potential separator | was easiest 
done as a within spreadsheet operation in its own field, because of too many 
residual "." in the whole file

After routine manipulations within the spread sheet, 
a view of the overlap detection section is:
 F       G      H                I               J  fields
Start   End Begin-nextEnd  OR((H2<0),(H1<0))  Stable 0/1 Value, for SORTING on  
        
686     1828    0               FALSE           0               
1828    2760    85              FALSE           0               
2845    4797    15              TRUE            0               
4812    7322    -28             TRUE            1               
7294    8547    4               TRUE            1               
8551    9183    -27             TRUE            1
9156    9920    3               FALSE           0       
9923    11251   0               FALSE           0       

The overlapping genes have stable value 1,during  sorting, while field I 
FALSE/TRUE and not stable during SORTing
