Hi all, Some time ago, I was looking for a program to grep sequences, and ended up packaging tacg, "a grep for DNA". After finding out how to build it on a recent system, I sent a patch on the sourceforge, and the maintainer did not answer. Since there is no sign of activity since 2006, tacg looks abandonned. Worse, I found a bug while using it, in which "grepped" sequences are found twice.
However, the program looks to have many other functions, which I do not feel like testing exhaustively. Can somebody have a look at it an help me to decide if we have to upload a package or cancel the ITP? Ah, I forgot: one of the modifications I had to make to bulid tacg is completely heuristic. I am not a programmer, and I strongly recommand to not upload anything at all before a real bioinformatician proofchecked it. PS: if somebody knows a better programm to grep sequences, I am still interestd :) Have a nice day, -- Charles Plessy http://charles.plessy.org WakÅ, Saitama, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
