Ebot is an interactive tool that generates a Perl script that implements an E-utility pipeline. Ebot will guide you step by step in building the pipeline and then will download the Perl script to your computer.

To run the script, perl must be installed on your machine along with the following modules available from www.cpan.org: These are very common modules and are part of most standard perl installations. 

• LWP::Simple
• LWP::UserAgent

These are very common modules and are part of most standard perl installations.

这东西有点意思，根据你的需要自动生成Perl程序，可以从NCBI各个数据库中批量导出数据。
