Enter Tags

This routine (which is available from the gap4 Edit menu) is used to add a set of tags (see section Annotation readings and contigs) stored in a file, to the database. The file format (see below) is identical to the output produced by the "save tags to file" option of "Find Repeats". See section Find Repeats. The format is a subset of the experiment file format. See section Experiment Files. The two are close enough for Enter tags to use an experiment file as input. The only input required is the name of the file to read and a file browser can be used to aid its selection.

Note that "Enter tags" will remove any results plotted in the Contig Comparator.

The start of a typical file is shown below.
