<H2>
    Function
</H2>
Reads and writes (returns) sequences, skipping first few
<H2>
    Description
</H2>

<b>skipseq</b> skips the first few sequences in a multiple set of
sequences, and writes out the rest of them. 

<p>

<b>skipseq</b> is a variant of the standard program for reading and
writing sequences, <b>seqret</b>. 

<p>

<b>seqret</b> has an option to allow it to only read the first sequence
from a multiple set of sequences (-firstonly).  <b>seqret</b> cannot,
however, skip the first few sequences from a multiple set of sequence,
writing out the rest; this is what <b>skipseq</b> is for.

<p>


In all other respects, <b>skipseq</b> is the same as <b>seqret</b>. 

<H2>
    Usage
</H2>
<b>Here is a sample session with skipseq</b>
<p>
This does not skip any sequences. It is exactly equivalent to seqret: 
<p>

<p>
<table width="90%"><tr><td bgcolor="#CCFFFF"><pre>

% <b>skipseq </b>
Reads and writes (returns) sequences, skipping first few
Input (gapped) sequence(s): <b>@eclac.list</b>
Number of sequences to skip at start [0]: <b></b>
output sequence(s) [j01636.fasta]: <b></b>

</pre></td></tr></table><p>

<p>
<b>Example 2</b>
<p>
This skips the first input sequence, writing out the others: 
<p>

<p>
<table width="90%"><tr><td bgcolor="#CCFFFF"><pre>

% <b>skipseq -skip 1 </b>
