[ensembl-dev] gtf export

[Nick Langridge]

Hi Fin,

Thanks for for reporting this.

As you say, the GTF output here doesn't look as we might expect - 
perhaps the tool is using out of date specification for GTF, we'll 
investigate further.

Given that the GTF format is identical to GFF2 I would suggest using the 
GFF export option and renaming the file if necessary.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
Nick
