Hello,

I have a short series of questions generally regarding the customization of Artemis.  Rather than bombard the list with all my questions, I'll take them one at a time, as I expect they may be fairly involved.  To note, I'm a bioinformatics guy and competent with both unix systems (I'm using Mac OS X), programming, and such.  To begin, my ultimate aim here is to customize Artemis as a graphical, interactive front end (which it already is) for manually annotating in-house-generated genomic sequences stored in a remotely hosted relational database (what I'm hoping it can become :P)

Ok, Question #1:  Configuring the items in the Run menu.  I've already read through http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/Artemis/v8/manual/runmenu.html, though I am confused by the apparent absence of any run_blastp or run_fasta scripts either within the Artemis container package (Mac OS X distribution, remember) or anywhere else on my machine.  I did find a script called setup_dbs.sh within the package contents, which I initially thought might generate these run_ scripts, though which I am now guessing only create a local set of databases.

*Should scripts such as run_blastp and run_fasta be generated during installation of Artemis, or are they generated during some sort of configuration step?
*Is it possible that the Mac OS X distribution of Artemis lacks these scripts (and thus this functionality)?
*Am I missing something obvious here?

Any help would be appreciated.
