.TH CLINVAR 1
.SH NAME
clinvar \- FZF based interface to clinvar for variant searching
.SH SYNOPSYS
\fBclinvar\fP \fIterm\fP ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBclinvar\fP searches for the given terms in the clinvar database.
A search is conducted and if multiple results are available they are
displayed in FZF with a preview of the variant details. A variant
can be selected to view details of the evidence associated with that
variant.
.P
If a variant is selected, the evidence will be shown in FZF and the
preview used to show additional free-text description associated with
the highlighted evidence entry. Cancelling or making a selection will
return to the search results.
.SH BUGS
As the NCBI results navigation is stateful, only the first 200 results
can be shown. Out of these, only the subset with variant identifiers
are displayed. This can result in a short list for large queries.
