Many thanks. Easy to spot now.

In all your definitions, like this one:

>>>
>>> DB em [  type: N method: srswww format: embl release: "EBI"
>>>   url: "http://srs.ebi.ac.uk/srs7bin/cgi-bin/wgetz";
>>>   dbalias: "EMBL"
>>>   comment: "EMBL from the EBI" ]

There is an extra ';' character at the end of the URL.

Unfortunately this breaks the parsing of quotes. it loses the "dbalias"
definition, and also gives an invalid URL.

You should be able to retrieve from all the databases with the ';' removed.

regards,

Peter Rice
