Function

Return a feature table original text

Description

feattext reads one or more complete feature entries from a database or a file and writes them to a text file. Optionally, the first feature table from the input stream only can be retrieved. The complete entry, including heading annotation, is retrieved and written and the data is not altered or reformatted in any way.

Usage

Here is a sample session with feattext
