Description-en: produces PostScript graphical output from GFF-files
gff2ps is a script program developed with the aim of converting gff-formatted
records into high quality one-dimensional plots in PostScript. Such plots
maybe useful for comparing genomic structures and to visualizing outputs from
genome annotation programs.
It can be used in a very simple way, because it assumes that the GFF file
itself carries enough formatting information, but it also allows through a
number of options and/or a configuration file, for a great degree of
customization.
