Description dbiflat indexes a blast database created by the NCBI indexing programs formatdb, pressdb or setdb, and builds EMBL CD-ROM format index files. The index files of the blast database format are not useful by themselves as they do not hold the entrynames or accession numbers, but they are used as pointers to the reference and sequence information in the database. Here is a sample session with dbiblast, using a blast 2 protein database.
