NAME
     bl_fastx_seq() - Return sequence of a FASTX object

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

SYNOPSIS
     char    *bl_fastx_seq(bl_fastx_t *record)

ARGUMENTS
     record  Pointer to the bl_fastx_t structure

DESCRIPTION
     Return  a pointer to the seq string of a FASTA or FASTQ record.  The record
     must be initialized with bl_fastx_init(3) and populated by bl_fastx_read(3)
     or other means.  Previously used variables may be reused to process another
     record  in  the  same  format  (FASTA  or	FASTQ)	 or   reinitialized   by
     bl_fastx_free(3);

RETURN VALUES
     Pointer to the seq string

EXAMPLES
     bl_fastx_t  record = BL_FASTX_INIT;

     bl_fastx_init(stdin, &record);
     bl_fastx_read(stdin, &record);
     printf("Seq string = %sn", bl_fastx_seq(&record));
     bl_fastx_free(&record);
