Function

   Finds or fetches data files read by EMBOSS programs

Description

   This is a utility to indicate which directories can hold EMBOSS data
   files and what the names of these files are.

   The names of EMBOSS data files all start with the character 'E', by
   convention, to distinguish them somewhat from any other files,
   especially files in your home directory.

   EMBOSS data files are read in by assorted EMBOSS programs, for example
   the files holding the various genetic codes to translate from nucleic
   acid codons to amino acids are held in files called "EGC.0", "EGC.1",
   "EGC.2", etc. These files normally are kept in a standard data
   directory under the EMBOSS package installation position:
   ".../emboss/emboss/data/". When EMBOSS programs require a data file,
   they search for it, in order, through the following set of
   directories:
     * The current directory
     * '.embossdata' in the current directory
     * Your home directory
     * '.embossdata' in your home directory
     * The EMBOSS standard data directory

   If a data file is placed in the current directory, EMBOSS programs
   will use it in preference to the file of the same name in the EMBOSS
   standard data directory. Thus if you wish to modify a data file to
   change the behaviour of an EMBOSS program, you should obtain it from
   the EMBOSS standard data directory, edit it, and place it in one of
   the other directories, such as the current directory or your home
   directory.

   The program embossdata is a utility to enable you to check on the
   location of the directories which could hold data files, to display
   the names of data files in those directories and to make local copies
   of the data files from the EMBOSS standard data directory in order for
   you to modify them.

Usage

   Here is a sample session with embossdata

   Display the directories searched for EMBOSS data files:


% embossdata 
Finds or fetches data files read by EMBOSS programs
Data file name: 

# The following directories can contain EMBOSS data files.
# They are searched in the following order until the file is found.
# If the directory does not exist, then this is noted below.
# '.' is the UNIX name for your current working directory.

.                                                            Exists
.embossdata                                                  Does not exist
/homes/pmr                                                   Exists
/homes/pmr/.embossdata                                       Does not exist
/homes/pmr/local/share/EMBOSS/data/                          Exists

   Example 2

   Display the names of data files in all of the possible data
   directories: This is run on a small test system and so the results
   will probably be different when you run this.

   Example 3

   Make a copy of an EMBOSS data file in the current directory:


% embossdata -fetch Epepcoil.dat 
Finds or fetches data files read by EMBOSS programs

File '/homes/pmr/local/share/EMBOSS/data/Epepcoil.dat' has been copied successf
ully.

   Go to the output files for this example

   Example 4

   Display the directories which contain a particular EMBOSS data file:


% embossdata EPAM60 
Finds or fetches data files read by EMBOSS programs

# The following directories can contain EMBOSS data files.
# They are searched in the following order until the file is found.
# If the directory does not exist, then this is noted below.
# '.' is the UNIX name for your current working directory.
