bl_fastx_init(3)	   Library Functions Manual	      bl_fastx_init(3)

NAME
       bl_fastx_init() - Initialize a FASTX object

LIBRARY
       #include	<biolibc/fasta.h>
       -lbiolibc -lxtend

SYNOPSIS
       void    bl_fastx_init(bl_fastx_t	*record, FILE *fastx_stream)

ARGUMENTS
       record  Pointer to the bl_fastx_t structure to initialize.

DESCRIPTION
       Initialize  a bl_fastx_t	structure by peaking at	the first character of
       the description string to determine whether  the	 stream	 is  FASTA  or
       FASTQ,  and  then  initializing	the  appropriate  structure within the
       bl_fastx_t  structure.	This  must  be	done  before  passing  it   to
       bl_fastx_read()	for  the first time, so	that bl_fastx_read() will know
       to allocate memory for the fields.

EXAMPLES
       bl_fastx_t  rec = BL_FASTX_INIT;

       bl_fastx_init(&rec);
       bl_fastx_read(stdin, &rec);
       bl_fastx_free(&rec);
