arb - phylogenetic sequence analysis suite
arb DATABASE

arb --import PATTERN
arb shell
ARB is a graphically oriented software suite for phylogenetic analysis of
sequence data. It allows managing large sets of sequence data, associated
descriptions as well as alignments and phylogenetic trees.
Launching ARB without arguments will open a file chooser. Launching ARB with one
DATABASE argument will open the specified file or, if DATABASE is a directory
or a pattern, a file chooser with that directory/pattern selected. Launching
ARB with two DATABASE arguments will open the database merge tool. The
"--import" option will show the import dialog and create a new
database from the file(s) described by PATTERN.
Running "arb shell" will open another shell with all ARB environment
variables set. This is useful to e.g. run ARB Perl scripts or tools part of
the arb package such as arb_pt_server or arb_probe.
