Both EMBL and GenBank have announced the switch of their current (different)
feature table formats to a common format for the end of this year.
Due to an increasing number of inquiries the Feature Table Definition is
now available from the EMBL File Server.
Three versions are provided: Macintosh Word 4.0 format, PostScript and RTF.
To get any of these files send a mail message to NETSERV at EMBL.BITNET
containing the line
GET DOC:FT_DEFINITION.HQX
for the Macintosh version (archieved with StuffIt)
or
GET DOC:FT_DEFINITION.PS
for the PostScript version
or
GET DOC:FT_DEFINITION.RTF
for the RTF version.
