asn2gb converts descriptions of biological sequences from NCBI's ASN.1 format to one of several flat-file formats, and is the successor to asn2ff(1).

A summary of options is included below.

-

Print usage message

-A accession

Accession to fetch; may take the form accession,complexity,flags where complexity should normally be 0 and a flags value of -1 enables fetching of external features (as with the legacy -F option)
