I set up a local Blat server using the instructions given in the FAQ section
of your website.  I expected the results from my query to be in psl format,
but the data that was returned lacked a column indicating the strand (either
"+" or "-") for the match.  I used a command similar to the one given on the
website:
   blat -stepSize=5 -minScore=0 -minIdentity=0 database.2bit query.fa
output.psl

Can anyone tell me why I didn't get the strand entry for any of my results,
or perhaps suggest another way to retrieve this information from the
database?

Thank you,
