<h2>NAME</h2>
gp_randseq - generate random DNA sequences from a master sequence
<p><h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
<strong>gp_randseq</strong> [-l length] [-number] [-q] [-v] [-d] [-h] [inputfile] [outputfile]
<p><h2>OPTIONS</h2>
<p><dl>
<p><p></p><dt><strong>-n value</strong><dd> set the number of random sequences to <em>value</em>
<p><p></p><dt><strong>-l value</strong><dd> set the random sequence length to <em>value</em>
<p><p></p><dt><strong>-m</strong><dd> instead of cutting out sequences at random positions in the
genome, computate the Markov chain probabilities for nucleotides
and generate sequences basing on that.
<p><p></p><dt><strong>-v</strong><dd> Prints the version information.
<p><p></p><dt><strong>-d</strong><dd> Prints lots of debugging information.
<p><p></p><dt><strong>-h</strong><dd> Shows usage information.
<p><p></p><dt><strong>inputfile</strong><dd> file to proces; if not given, will use standard input
<p><p></p><dt><strong>outputfile</strong><dd> file to write the data to; if not given, will
use standard output
<p></dl>
<p><h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p><strong>gp_randseq</strong> cuts out random sequences from a larger sequence. It is
useful in genomic comparisons (e.g. what will be the distribution
of a certain parameter in my set of sequences as compared to random
sequences). The probability distribution of the sequence start
should be linear.

<p><h2>DIAGNOSTICS</h2>
<p>All <strong>Genpak</strong> programs complain in situations you would also complain,
like when they cannot find a sequence you gave them or the sequence is not
valid.
<p>The <strong>Genpak</strong> programs do not write over existing files. I have found this
feature very useful :-)
<p><h2>BUGS</h2>
<p>I'm sure there are plenty left, so please mail me if you find them. I tried
to clean up every bug I could find.
