The TextDumper plugin was contributed by Don Jackson. It provides a
report on features in the active region as a tab-delimited text file.
It's based on the GFFDumper, but adds a few tweaks for
user-friendliness:
- only features from the active tracks are displayed
- the configuration page lets users select which attributes
(reference, start, stop, notes, etc) are displayed
- users can select a mime type for the report. Currently the plugin
supports text/plain or application/vnd.ms-excel
To install, copy TextDumper.pm to your plugins directory, stored
underneath your web server configuration directory at
gbrowse.conf/plugins. Then add TextDumper to plugins line in the
appropriate gbrowse.conf configuration file.
