Any chance that this will ever be merged? Uncompressing 1000's of gzip'ed fasta files just to run them through prokka can be a bit of pain.

Can you just run prokka <(zcat fasta.gz) ?

I will consider using any2fasta

Shell redirection can cause some problems in certain situations and is something that biologists with less computational knowledge know how to do, but yeah it should work for me. Thanks for the suggestion!
