order of sequences in the output of get.seqs

May be i’m missing it but if i want the order of sequences in the output pick.fasta to be the same as that in my .accnos file, how do i do that?

To explain: if my .accnos file has 5 sequence id’s and even if the 5th sequence occurs first in my input fasta, it should still come as the fifth sequence in my output pick.fasta not the first sequence.

Thanks

The sort.seqs command, http://www.mothur.org/wiki/Sort.seqs, allows you to sort sequences into any order you would like.
