### We'd like to know how bioSyntax can be developed to help your workflow. [Tell us what you think! (~5m)](https://goo.gl/forms/YO89fEPw71JpH3Ac2)

## Usage
bioSyntax integrates seamlessly with your text editor, recognizing data-type by the file extension or streamed into `less`.

To gain the most insight from your data, read our brief [bioSyntax Manual](http://bioSyntax.org/man).
