wossoperation

Function

Description

wossoperation searches the annotation of applications in ACD files, using terms from the EDAM ontology. There are various options for controlling how the search is performed and what is given in the output file. Optionally, the output will be wrapped in HTML tags ready for inclusion in a Web page.

Algorithm

The first search is of the EDAM ontology operation namespace, using the term names and their synonynms. All child terms are automatically included in the set of matches inless the -nosubclasses qualifier is used.

The -sensitive qualifier also searches the definition strings.

The set of EDAM terms are then compared to relations in the ACD file, where the application definition requires EDAM operation annotation.

Usage

Command line arguments


Input file format

wossoperation reads the brief descriptions and the program groups from the ACD files. (ACD files control the parameters that the programs expect - don't worry about them unless you are writing EMBOSS programs).

Output file format

The results are written out as a simple list of program names and short descriptions.
