Hi there, Sorry I missed this issue before. `AB_12345` is just a made up ID I use as an example. If you use a real GenBank or RefSeq ID, that...

The NCBI Entrez API does deliver FASTA files, just not if you query for WGS master entries. I don't really want to depend on Biopython for all of ncbi-genome-download, but...

`ncbi-acc-download` directly uses the Entrez API. I'm not sure if that supports those identifiers. I know it doesn't do genome assembly IDs.

The NCBI's [`datasets`](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/datasets/docs/v2/reference-docs/command-line/datasets/) tool seems pretty flexible, but I think it also only does Assembly and BioProject IDs.

Just realized I forgot to comment on this, sorry about that. I'm not sure that this is the direction I want to go with the tool. I'll have to think...

Yes, I'm copying what the NCBI API provides, character by character.

That said, I'm not currently trying to validate GFF files, as validation right now is just checking if Biopython will load the file.

Cleaning up old issues. `ncbi-acc-download` doesn't validate GFF files at all because Biopython doesn't support the file format.

While the other DNS domain works fine for me, this obviously makes sense and will be shipped with the next release. Thanks for your report!
