database info

[Marc Logghe]

Koen,
is it only to obtain one way or another a valid ID for a sequence from your
database ?
If that is the case, you can e.g. ask for the first entry in the database
like this:
seqret sw -firstonly
I did not try it with remote databases; it should work with a local
database.
HTH,
ML
