### Prerequisites:
- Python >=3.6

### Quickstart:
```
pip install get-uniprot
```
### Usage:
```
Usage: uniprot [OPTIONS]

Options:
-p, --protein TEXT Name of protein.
-g, --gene TEXT Name of gene.
-o, --organism TEXT Name of organism.
-f, --file Output sequence to .fasta file.
--help Show this message and exit.
```
e.g.
```
uniprot -p eEF1A -o 'S. cerevisiae' > eEF1A.fasta
```
### Output:
Command will output sequence to the shell and create a .fasta file in the current directory if -f supplied.
Otherwise can redirect to file (see example.)
Recommended: Use -f option if in Windows PowerShell, redirects will create abhorrently formatted .fasta sequences.
