Tool:Kitten - A DNA Sequence Dereplicator & Cluster Viewer (GUI)

Question

[BioApps]

Related to related to Efficiently process (view, analize, clip ends, convert, demultiplex, dereplicate) SFF/FastQ files: I just built a tool for sequence dereplication. The program is a graphic interface on top of CD-Hit.

Plans for next version:

• Job summary (graphic reports)
• Multi-threading
• Integration with Avalanche Workbench - Automated & visual data analysis (NCBI eSearch, eLink, eFetch, Get genome, Blast)
• Integration with Efficiently process (view, analize, clip ends, convert, demultiplex, dereplicate) SFF/FastQ files

Download

The download is here. Freeware (as usual) :) Enjoy.

Update:

Early preview of graphs:

<kidding>Every time you write a GUI for a command-line program, god kills a kitten ;-) </kidding>

[BioApps]

In this Universe, as in any decent schrodinger universe, the kittens are always unsafe. God like scientists, not kittens! But in this universe particularly god doesn't like one type of scientists: biologists (I am speaking about Biologists not bioINFORMATICIANS). To punish them, god created Linux and the almighty Bash

:)

But... yeah.. I know why you say that :)

Still, I will keep developing ONLY graphic user interface tools :)

It is fine to write GUIs, but it is not fine to write windows-only GUIs. As much as I hate Java GUI, it is still way better than a windows-only application. Please make it cross-platform.

This program will be incorporated into a bigger app (C: Efficiently process (view, analize, clip ends, convert, demultiplex, dereplicate) and then ported to Mac and Linux.
