Generating a Bed file from a Fasta file

I created many random sequences by using NullSeq 2.0, and saved those sequences in a fasta format. Now I want to get the genomic coordinates and make a bedfile. Any ideas on how to do that?

bed nullseq

you could run blast or any other aligner to get the coordinate(s) of your fasta on a reference genome.

I tried running BLAT, but the output looks like this. Seems like none of the sequences were mapped/aligned

match   mis-    rep.    N's Q gap   Q gap   T gap   T gap   strand  Q           Q       Q       Q   T           T       T       T   block   blockSizes  qStarts  tStarts
        match   match       count   bases   count   bases           name        size    start   end name        size    start   end count

there is not enough information. you have to show us the command you used, a snapshot of your fasta...
