Hi users, I made some fairly major changes (long needed ones too!) to the way Genquire deals with Blast. Blast parameters are now configured for your specific BLAST CGI program through a hash in the genquire.conf file. The conf file is documented to explain how it works. (Note that this is the internal Blast, not the plugin Blast). Please let me know how you get on - I haven't tested it completely because our Blast is currently broken (yeah yeah yeah, what else is new)... but I am fairly sure that it is functional as I have stepped through it in -d right up to the actual Blast call to ensure that it is reading and interpreting the conf file correctly. Cheers!
