Thanks Jafar, for giving me the impetus to be impatient with regex-dna . I think regex-dna was not hanging in the classic sense but waiting on input as it reported as soon as I pressed <enter> in the command window.
here is the concluding screen-scrape regex-dna 10-thou.dat <ENTER> 39:51.129 0.172 13901.912x reverse-complement 150-thou.dat 0.094 N/A spectral-norm 100 0.484 N/A thread-ring 1000 N/A 0.203 -------------------------- What have I learned so far? Run the tests in a (separate) directory owned by the current user. use Clint's umake.exe and his sh.exe . use fasta to create the mil and thou.dat files. (or get that bit of the make process fixed) running regex-dna will partly be a test of the users' reaction times, until it's fixed not to require input. I hope that's progressed things. Let me know if you want more testing done. and thanks for all the fast support.
