With macOS 10.15, 32-bit programs no longer work (GenomeMatcher used bl2seq, which is no longer functional). Therefore, GenomeMatcher has been updated to version 3.0.
When starting the application, you may encounter an error stating, "The application cannot be opened because it is damaged." In such cases, open the terminal and execute like followings:
xattr -rc /Users/user_name/Downloads/GenomeMatcher3.07.app
It is easier if you type "xattr -rc " and then drag the application icon into the terminal window. Please note that a space is required before and after "-rc."
The downloaded application may not work properly due to the Mac translocation feature, which temporarily isolates applications in a secure location. If this happens, please move the downloaded application to your desktop or a folder where you have write permissions before using it.
