Dear Alen,

I believe you should leave out the "Yes", although it might propt for outfile still, but offer stdout as default.

You could also use (in Unix/Linux/etc at least) -outfile /dev/tty to direct the output to terminal.

Hello,

I am trying to run some EMBOSS tools on the command line (without a prompt). My 
goal is to have the tools print the output files to standard output. I noticed 
that the EMBOSS tools have the -stdout flag, but I can't seem to get anything 
printed to standard output. For instance, I tried the following commands, but 
to no avail:

polydot globins.fasta -stdout Yes -auto Yes -graph cps
tmap -stdout Yes -auto Yes opsd.msf -out tmap.res -graph cps
chaos -auto Yes -stdout Yes tembl:j01636 -graph cps

None of these executions write the results to standard out. Any ideas as to 
what I'm doing wrong? I appreciate, in advance, your time and assistance.

Thanks,
Alen
