Hello,
I'm trying to use graphs in scripts outside of emboss. However i got into
problems with options conserning the graph handling. I found following
options from "banana" tools webpage:
"-graph" related qualifiers
-gprompt boolean Graph prompting
-gtitle string Graph title
-gsubtitle string Graph subtitle
-gxtitle string Graph x axis title
-gytitle string Graph y axis title
-goutfile string Output file for non interactive displays
-gdirectory string Output directory
I tried to use -goutfile and -gdirectory with banana, but i seem to be unable
to effect the data file(s) or their directories.
If i understand correctly this should work "banana mRNA.seq -graph data
-goutfile /home/hena/banana_data_file -auto" or then "banana mRNA.seq -graph
data -goutfile banana_data_file -gdirectory /home/hena". For second i get
error: "Died: unknown qualifier -gdirectory" and with first i get "Created
banana_data_file.dat", but no such file is created and no data fale is there.
Also if i use "-data" option there, i get multiple bananaX.dat (in which X is
running number) files.
So, my questions are. How exactly how is this supposed to work? And could it
be added to webpages "User documentation" section with other formats. And
thirdly is there a reason, why some programs expect "-data" option and others
do not?
TIA
