fasta file content:

>FBpp0079251 FBgn0003607 symbol:Su(var)205 family:Chromatin Remodeling Factors species:Drosophila melanogaster

That will extract the entire header line, not the ID.

Well what is your expected output? What are the IDs?

Thank you for the commend.

IDs in the texts above are the lines which contain '>' sight, e.g.:

>FBpp0079251 FBgn0003607 symbol:Su(var)205 family:Chromatin Remodeling Factors species:Drosophila melanogaster
>FBpp0079496 FBgn0032157 symbol:Etl1 family:Chromatin Remodeling Factors species:Drosophila melanogaster

You can say its the id of that gene or polypeptide.

well then I have to agree with poisonAlien's solution. From what you told me you just want the fasta headers:

grep ">" fasta_file.fa | sed 's,>,,g' > seq_id.txt
