Oh, I completely overlooked the fact that the emboss programs can take
their user replies from stdin. Maybe then the most straightforward to
inform users from this mistake would be to change the error message to
something like : "Error: could not open file '...............', in which
the name of the file would be truncated to the end of the line. The user
would quickly understand if the file name is someting like AGTCCAGGTA...

Have a nice day,
