Squid

Introduction

In the wide world of software, squid is a proxy server used in high traffic websites, but this squid is Sean Eddy's utilites for general sequence reading.

Its list of executable is as follows:

• compalign
• alistat
• afetch
• shuffle
• sfetch
• seqstat
• seqsplit
• revcomp
• compstruct
• weight
• translate
• sreformat
• sindex

For the library, a static one is created and somehow the system recognises the -lsquid linking direction ... perhaps because /usr/local/lib is a very standard location, in an unusual location, it may not be so easy.
