Version 1.1 unfortunately contained a bug if using the prefix argument in a certain order. We fixed this bug and released a new version of BLASTScanner. Sorry for any possible inconvenience. The file is available at the Sourceforge facilities for downloading. In order to download BLASTScanner, either the source code or binaries for various platforms go to the Download page. Details about usage can be found at the BLASTScanner-page.

We just released a new version of BLASTScanner which supports now shell wildcards as well. WE removed the old getopt library and where further writing a simple arguments parser form command line invocations. It is now possible to translate a bunch of textual files like in this example.

$ BLASTScanner-Windows-x86.exe --infile *.blastp --prefix blastp > sample.sql  

Please be aware that the syntax --infile=filename does not work anymore. We removed the getopt-library as it blows up the standalone c-source files and does not allow shell filename expansion using wildcards. For more details on how to work with BLASTScanner consult the README.
