splitter is a simple editing program that allows you to split a long sequence into smaller, optionally overlapping, subsequences.

To split a sequence into subsequences of 10,000 bases (the default size) with no overlap between the subsequences:

% splitter one_huge.seq many_small.seq

To split a sequence into subsequences of 50,000 bases with an overlap of 3,000 bases on each subsequence:

% splitter one_huge.seq many_small.seq -size=50000 -over=3000

Mandatory qualifiers:

[-sequence] (seqall)

Sequence database USA.

[-outseq] (seqoutall)

Output sequence(s) USA.

Optional qualifiers:

-size (integer)

Size to split at.

-overlap (integer)

Overlap between split sequences.
