-osformat strangeness

[gwilliam at hgmp.mrc.ac.uk]

Can anyone explain this behaviour? When I use '-osf staden' or '-osf
gcg' I get no output but no error messages. 

% seqret ttt.seq stdout
Reads and writes (returns) sequences
>
AGCTAGGGCTTAAA

[OK - this is a short test sequence, but the error occurs with longer
sequences, eg embl:hsfau]

% seqret ttt.seq stdout -osf gcg
Reads and writes (returns) sequences

[Where did the output go?]

% seqret ttt.seq stdout -osf staden
Reads and writes (returns) sequences

[Ditto!]

% seqret ttt.seq stdout -osf embl
Reads and writes (returns) sequences
ID              standard; DNA; UNC; 14 BP.
SQ   Sequence 14 BP; 5 A; 2 C; 4 G; 3 T; 0 other;
     AGCTAGGGCT TAAA                                                          14
//

[now it works]


The only output formats I think this happens with are gcg and staden.

Thanks,
