14 hmmfetch is a small utility that retrieves an HMM called name from a
15 HMMER model database called database. in a new format, and prints that
16 model to standard output. For example, hmmfetch Pfam rrm retrieves the
17 RRM (RNA recognition motif) model from Pfam, if the environment vari‐
18 able HMMERDB is set to the location of the Pfam database. The
19 retrieved HMM file is written in HMMER 2 ASCII format.
