FASTA file specifications

I didn't know how much of the FASTA file specifications were to be implemented (supported), so for the REXX example (version 2), I took what I could glean from the WIKI article and supported:

  • blank lines
  • lines that start with a semicolon   [;]
  • lines that end with an asterisk   [*]
  • data lines that contain blanks, tabs, and other whitespace
