PUBLIC DOMAIN

Entrez Direct (EDirect) is a method for accessing the NCBI's set of interconnected databases (publication, sequence, structure, gene, variation, expression, etc.) from a UNIX terminal window. Functions take search terms from command line arguments. Individual operations are combined to build multi-step queries. Record retrieval and formatting normally complete the process.
