# List all available methods for getName generic function:

   methods(getName)
#
# Example with seven DNA sequences from a FASTA file:
#
  ff <- system.file("sequences/someORF.fsa", package = "seqinr")
  fs <- read.fasta(file = ff)
  stopifnot(all(getName(fs) == c("YAL001C", "YAL002W", "YAL003W",
    "YAL005C", "YAL007C", "YAL008W", "YAL009W")))
#
# Example with 49 sequences from an ACNUC server:
#
  ## Not run: 
  # Need internet connection
  choosebank("emblTP")
  fc <- query("fc", "sp=felis catus et t=cds et o=mitochondrion")
  getName(fc)
  closebank()  

## End(Not run)
