-#This is a sample file distributed with Galaxy that is used to define a
-#list of protein BLAST databases, using three columns tab separated
-#(longer whitespace are TAB characters):
-#
-#<unique_id>	<database_caption>	<base_name_path>
-#
-#The captions typically contain spaces and might end with the build date.
-#It is important that the actual database name does not have a space in it,
-#and that the first tab that appears in the line is right before the path.
-#
-#So, for example, if your database is NR and the path to your base name
-#is /data/blastdb/nr, then the blastdb_p.loc entry would look like this:
-#
-#nr		NCBI NR (non redundant)		/data/blastdb/nr
-#
-#and your /data/blastdb directory would contain all of the files associated
-#with the database, /data/blastdb/nr.*.
-#
-#Your blastdb_p.loc file should include an entry per line for each "base name"
-#you have stored. For example:
-#
-#nr_05Jun2010	NCBI NR (non redundant) 05 Jun 2010		/data/blastdb/05Jun2010/nr
-#nr_15Aug2010	NCBI NR (non redundant) 15 Aug 2010		/data/blastdb/15Aug2010/nr
-#...etc...
-#
-#See also blastdb.loc which is for any nucleotide BLAST database.
