Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for your quick reply !

What we actually do here is that we use a script witch act as a user 
agent to query DNA sequences from your website using your "Get DNA" tool.

So, now I have downloaded entire chromosomes files and Genome Browser 
source code and executables, I am not sure about the right executable to 
use... Do you know witch is the executable that retrieve DNA sequence 
from a given genomic position ?

Thank a lot.

Édouard
