DESCRIPTION

seealso is a command line program from EMBOSS (“the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite”). It is part of the "Documentation" command group(s).

OPTIONS

Input section
−search
string

Enter the name of an EMBOSS program

Additional section
−explode
boolean

The groups that EMBOSS applications belong to have two forms, exploded and not exploded. The exploded group names are more numerous and often vaguely phrased than the non−exploded ones. The exploded names are formed from definitions of the group names that start like NAME1:NAME2 and which are then expanded into many combinations of the names as: 'NAME1', 'NAME2', 'NAME1 NAME2', NAME2 NAME1'. The non−expanded names are simply like: 'NAME1 NAME2'. Using expanded group names will find many more programs which share at least some of the expanded names than using the non−exploded names and so you will get more programs reported as sharing a similar function than you will if you specify that you wish to use non−exploded names Default value: N

Advanced section
−emboss
boolean

If you use this option then EMBOSS program documentation will be searched. If this option is set to be false, then only the EMBASSY programs will be searched (if the −embassy option is true). EMBASSY programs are not strictly part of EMBOSS, but use the same code libraries and share the same look and feel, but are generally developed by people who wish the programs to be outside of the GNU General Public License scheme Default value: Y

−embassy boolean

If you use this option then EMBASSY program documentation will be searched. If this option is set to be false, then only the EMBOSS programs will be searched (if the −emboss option is true). EMBASSY programs are not strictly part of EMBOSS, but use the same code libraries and share the same look and feel, but are generally developed by people who wish the programs to be outside of the GNU General Public License scheme Default value: Y

−showembassy string

If you use this option then this EMBASSY package program documentation will be searched. EMBASSY programs are not strictly part of EMBOSS, but use the same code libraries and share the same look and feel, but are generally developed by people who wish the programs to be outside of the GNU General Public License scheme

Output section
−outfile
outfile

Default value: stdout

Html section
−html
toggle

If you are sending the output to a file, this will format it for displaying as a table in a WWW document. Default value: N

−groups boolean

If you use this option, then only the group names will output to the file Default value: N

−colon boolean

The groups that EMBOSS applications belong to have up to two levels, for example the primary group 'ALIGNMENT' has several sub−groups, or second−level groups, e.g.: CONSENSUS, DIFFERENCES, DOT PLOTS, GLOBAL, LOCAL, MULTIPLE. To aid programs that parse the output of seealso that require the names of these subgroups, a colon ':' will be placed between the first and second level of the group name if this option is true. Default value: N

BUGS

Bugs can be reported to the Debian Bug Tracking system (http://bugs.debian.org/emboss), or directly to the EMBOSS developers (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93650&atid=605031).
