This manual page documents briefly the stranslate command.

Available options:
−a |
Translate in full, with stops; no individual ORFs. |
|||
−h |
Help; show brief usage and version info. |
−l <minlen>
Report only ORFs greater than minlen (default 20).
−m |
Require ORFs to start with AUG/Met. |
−o <outfile>
Save results in output file.
−q |
Quiet; silence banner, for piping or redirection. |
−s <stopchar>
With -a, set stop character to <stopchar>.
−−tetrahymena
Use the Tetrahymena/Oxytricha genetic code.
−−watson
Only do the top strand (frames 0/1/2).
−−crick
Only do the bottom strand (frames 3/4/5).
The original program name is translate. It was renamed to stranslate to avoid conflict with another program of the same name.
