Function

   Insert one sequence into another

Description

   This simple editing program allows you to insert one sequence into
   another sequence after a specified position and to then write out the
   results to a sequence file.

Usage

   Here is a sample session with pasteseq

   To insert the sequence 'tsw:flav_nossm' after position 67 in sequence
   'tsw:amir_pseae' and write the results to the file 'amir_pseae.fasta':


% pasteseq tsw:amir_pseae tsw:flav_nossm -pos=67 
Insert one sequence into another
Output sequence [amir_pseae.fasta]: 

   Go to the input files for this example
   Go to the output files for this example

   Example 2

   This does the same thing, but the output qualifier is explicitly used:


% pasteseq tsw:amir_pseae tsw:flav_nossm -out=amirplus.seq -pos=67 
Insert one sequence into another

   Go to the output files for this example

   Example 3

   To insert the sequence 'tsw:flav_nossm' before the start of sequence
   'tsw:amir_pseae' use -pos=0:


% pasteseq tsw:amir_pseae tsw:flav_nossm -out=amirplus.seq -pos=0 
Insert one sequence into another

   Go to the output files for this example
