+Galaxy tool to find ORFs or simple CDSs
+=======================================
+
+This tool is copyright 2011-2013 by Peter Cock, The James Hutton Institute
+(formerly SCRI, Scottish Crop Research Institute), UK. All rights reserved.
+See the licence text below (MIT licence).
+
+This tool is a short Python script (using Biopython library functions)
+to search nucleotide sequences for open reading frames (ORFs) or coding
+sequences (CDSs) where the first potential start codon is used. See the
+help text in the XML file for more information.
+
+This tool is available from the Galaxy Tool Shed at:
+
+* http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/get_orfs_or_cdss
+
+See also the EMBOSS tool ``getorf`` which offers similar functionality and
+has also been wrapped for use within Galaxy.
+
+
+Automated Installation
+======================
+
+This should be straightforward using the Galaxy Tool Shed, which should be
+able to automatically install the dependency on Biopython, and then install
+this tool and run its unit tests.
+
+
+Manual Installation
+===================
+
+There are just two files to install to use this tool from within Galaxy:
+
+* get_orfs_or_cdss.py (the Python script)
+* get_orfs_or_cdss.xml (the Galaxy tool definition)
+
+The suggested location is in a dedicated tools/get_orfs_or_cdss folder.
+
+You will also need to modify the tools_conf.xml file to tell Galaxy to offer the
+tool. One suggested location is in the filters section. Simply add the line::
+
+    <tool file="get_orfs_or_cdss/get_orfs_or_cdss.xml" />
+
+You will also need to install Biopython 1.54 or later. If you want to run
+the unit tests, include this line in tools_conf.xml.sample and the sample
+FASTA files under the test-data directory. Then::
+
+    ./run_functional_tests.sh -id get_orfs_or_cdss
+
+That's it.

+Developers
+==========
+
+This script and related tools were initially developed on the following hg branch:
+http://bitbucket.org/peterjc/galaxy-central/src/tools
+
+Development has now moved to a dedicated GitHub repository:
+https://github.com/peterjc/pico_galaxy/tree/master/tools
+
+For making the "Galaxy Tool Shed" http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/ tarball use
+the following command from the Galaxy root folder::
+
+    $ tar -czf get_orfs_or_cdss.tar.gz tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/README.rst tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/get_orfs_or_cdss.* tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/repository_dependencies.xml test-data/get_orf_input*.fasta test-data/Ssuis.fasta
+
+Check this worked::
+
+    $ tar -tzf get_orfs_or_cdss.tar.gz
+    tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/README.rst
+    tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/get_orfs_or_cdss.py
