[Gmod-help] List of possible parameters (options) for a Glyph in GBrowse

[Dave Clements, GMOD Help Desk]

Hi Ram,

Unfortunately, I have no feel for how complete the option
documentation is for each glyph.  You could post the question to
BioPerl, but I suspect that no one on that list has a good feel for it
either.  Yours is the first comment I've heard on documentation errors
in the glyphs.

I also don't know of a better way to look this information up.

However, one of the work items buried deep in my queue is to create a
GBrowse Glyphs page on the GMOD web site.  It would contain a short
description of each glyph, some example pictures.  Would it be
possible to use your notes on this as a basis for that page?  Would
you be willing to mail me your notes when your done?  This would get
me moving on that goal

So, I'm afraid I can't help you, but you might be able to help me.

Thanks,

Dave C.
