amos2ace: converter from AMOS message format to .ACE |
Overview
Amos2ace can be used to convert assembler output in the AMOS message format to the .ACE format (readable by consed).
System requirements
Amos2ace is written in Perl. It requires Perl 5.6.0 or newer and was tested on several Unix systems including Linux RedHat 7.3, OSF5.1, Sun Solaris, and Linux SuSE 9.1 and should run on most systems UNIX systems.
Obtaining amos2ace
Amos2ace can be downloaded as a part of the AMOS package.
This software is OSI Certified
Open Source Software.
Documentation
Synopsis
amos2ace [options] <infile1> <infile2> ...
Amos2ace reads one or more AMOS message files specified on the command line and produces a .ACE file. The message files must be provided in a "reasonable" order: the file defining a specific object must occur before a file using it. The output file name is generated from the first file on the command line unless specifically set through option -o (see below).
Options
-o <outfile>
- place output in <outfile>
-c
<chromat_dir> - the chromatograms can be found in
directory <chromat_dir>
-p <phd_dir>
- the PHD files can be found in directory <phd_dir>
Note: the chromat_dir and phd_dir parameters are only used to provide consed with the necessary information used to display chromatograms. These options are only relevant if the assembler inputs were generated using the phred pipeline.
