[EMBOSS] DB - finding out how many sequences

[Jon Ison]

Ay up Aengus

Not so far as I'm aware although you could get that number
indirectly by using infoseq.

You could try using dbxflat too ... which does generate some
stats on the input data -  don't know whether the stats include
the number of sequences that were indexed but its worth a look.

Cheers

Jon
