asn2ff - convert ASN.1 biological data to a flat format (old version)

       The National Center for Biotechnology Information.

asn2ff converts descriptions of biological sequences from NCBI's ASN.1 format to one of several flat-file
       formats.  This program is built around a deprecated interface; please use asn2gb(1)instead.
