How can I avoid manually concatenating the output sequences

[cameron coates]

Thanks so much for creating this service!  I need to identify housekeeping genes for a large number of genomes (~140).  Is there an easy way to use the output files from each analysis to concatenate the sequences.  I plan to align them on my own and then make a tree on my own.

Thank you for your interest about AmphoraNet!

To concatenate text files you can use "cat" command in Linux terminal and "type" or "copy" command in Windows DOS terminal (cmd.exe). If you would like to concatenate many files quickly you can use the * sign.

Example (in Linux):

cat *.pep > out.txt

Example in Windows:

type *.pep > out.txt

Or write to me. Or send me the files and I do it.
