What thought has been given to user scripting interfaces for EteRNA? Is there any sort of specification or requirements or brainstorming notes that I could get access to? I’m considering doing something starting with the RNAfold program as a starting point as I gather that uses the same energy model.Thanks.

Hi jandersonlee

we are in fact working hard on the scripting interface right now, and will post a news item about it soon.

As a baseline spec, we’ll use javascript for as a scripting language. Baseline coding & debugging interface will be provided in EteRNA website, and APIs for accessing sequence & synthesis data from EteRNA DB, and APIs for accessing full ViennaRNA package functions will be provided.
