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
No attempt was made to format lines with ␋ (vertical tabs, U+0000B) which can be used to specify multiple lines in one record.
