[BiO BB] API for gene ontology retrieval?

[Rob C]

If performance is not a consideration, you may try irobotsoft from
http://irobotsoft.com.
It has a visual interface for programming web robots, and also has an
ActiveX interface
for programmers.

They have an example 'blastx.irb' for the blast search automation.

Yours,
