General information.

Field terminator is "\t|\t"

Row terminator is "\t|\n"

nodes.dmp file consists of taxonomy nodes. The description for each node includes the following

fields:

tax_id -- node id in GenBank taxonomy database

  parent tax_id -- parent node id in GenBank taxonomy database

  rank -- rank of this node (superkingdom, kingdom, ...) 

  embl code -- locus-name prefix; not unique

  division id -- see division.dmp file

  inherited div flag  (1 or 0) -- 1 if node inherits division from parent

  genetic code id -- see gencode.dmp file

  inherited GC  flag  (1 or 0) -- 1 if node inherits genetic code from parent

  mitochondrial genetic code id -- see gencode.dmp file

  inherited MGC flag  (1 or 0) -- 1 if node inherits mitochondrial gencode from parent

  GenBank hidden flag (1 or 0)            -- 1 if name is suppressed in GenBank entry lineage

  hidden subtree root flag (1 or 0)       -- 1 if this subtree has no sequence data yet

  comments -- free-text comments and citations

Taxonomy names file (names.dmp):

tax_id -- the id of node associated with this name

name_txt -- name itself

unique name -- the unique variant of this name if name not unique

name class -- (synonym, common name, ...)

Divisions file (division.dmp):

division id -- taxonomy database division id

division cde -- GenBank division code (three characters)

division name -- e.g. BCT, PLN, VRT, MAM, PRI...

comments

Genetic codes file (gencode.dmp):

genetic code id -- GenBank genetic code id

abbreviation -- genetic code name abbreviation

name -- genetic code name

cde -- translation table for this genetic code

starts -- start codons for this genetic code

Deleted nodes file (delnodes.dmp):

tax_id -- deleted node id

Merged nodes file (merged.dmp):

old_tax_id                              -- id of nodes which has been merged

new_tax_id                              -- id of nodes which is result of merging

Citations file (citations.dmp):

cit_id -- the unique id of citation

cit_key -- citation key

pubmed_id -- unique id in PubMed database (0 if not in PubMed)

medline_id -- unique id in MedLine database (0 if not in MedLine)

sort a space-delimited file based on its first column, then the second if the first is the same, and so on:
sort input.txt

sort a huge file (GNU sort ONLY):
sort -S 1500M -t $HOME/tmp input.txt > sorted.txt

sort starting from the third column, skipping the first two columns:
sort +2 input.txt

sort the second column as numbers, descending order; if identical, sort the 3rd as strings, ascending order:
sort -k2,2nr -k3,3 input.txt

sort starting from the 4th character at column 2, as numbers:
sort -k2.4n input.txt
