GeneRecords 1.0

GeneRecords is a solution for GenBank biological flat file
parsing, as it implements a structured representation of
each feature and feature qualifier in GenBank following import in a
common database managing system usable in a personal computer
(Macintosh and Windows environments). This collection of related
databases enables the local management of GenBank records, allowing
indexing, retrieval and analysis of both information and sequences
on a personal computer.


Minimal requirements for use are:
Macintosh OS 8.1 or later, 9.x
Macintosh OS X with Classic
Windows OS 95/98 with Internet Explorer 4.0 or later,
           NT 4.0 with Service Pack 3, 2000.

The user can choose among three different versions,
related to three possible operating systems:
Mac OS 9 (download file GeneRecordsMacOS9.sit)
