Support symlinks?
Dicey could support symlinks for some regular inputs instead of just regular files. For example, this would allow a symlinked assembly or indices for that assembly to be used for dicey search
, and also process substitution could be used to send the input sequences fasta from standard input or the output of another application:
dicey search -i /etc/primer3_config -g symlink.fa.gz <(echo "FASTA here)
