Mary O'Callaghan and I gave a two day course last Thursday and Friday
on how to use ACEDB, and in particular how to edit in it, and adapt it
to other data. In the process we made a number of miscellaneous files
and it seemed a good idea to make them available to others. In
particular Sam might want to add at least some of them to his
documentation server. They are available by ftp as course.tar.Z on
cele.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk in pub/acedb/ace2. The examples all run with
the current public ace2 code and wspec -- sorry, that was just what
was easiest for us. The archive contains:
exercises with answers
new-database script to make a new empty database with $ACEDB = pwd
mini-db.ace small database with examples of most types of data
examples.ace example ace file
acediff/ info and examples for using acediff
blast/ scripts for converting blast output to .ace files
medline/ script for converting medline entries to .ace files
editingmodels/ info and exercises on how to add to the models and
classes. Also includes a complete annotated minimal
set of models for ace2, containing only those tags
used by the code, and briefly saying how they are
used.
There is a global README and a README in each subdirectory.
