RNAPARCONV

NAME

RNAparconv − manual page for RNAparconv 2.6.4

SYNOPSIS

RNAparconv [options] [<input file>] [<output file>]

DESCRIPTION

RNAparconv 2.6.4

Convert energy parameter files from ViennaRNA 1.8.4 to 2.0 format

Converts energy parameter files from "old" ViennaRNAPackage 1.8.4 format to the new format used since ViennaRNAPackage 2.0. The Program reads a valid energy parameter file or valid energy parameters from stdin and prints the converted energy parameters to stdout or a specified output file. Per default, the converted output file contains the whole set of energy parameters used throughout ViennaRNAPackage 1.8.4. The user can specify sets of energy parameters that should not be included in the output.
−h, −−help

Print help and exit

−−full−help

Print help, including hidden options, and exit

−V, −−version

Print version and exit

I/O Options:

Command line options for input and output (pre−)processing

−i, −−input=filename

Specify an input file name. If argument is missing the energy parameter input can be supplied via ’stdin’.

−o, −−output=filename

Specify an output file name. If argument is missing the converted energy parameters are printed to ’stdout’.

−−vanilla

Print just as much as needed to represent the given energy parameters data set. This option overrides all other output settings!

(default=off)

(default=off)
