Bio::SeqIO::tinyseq::tinyseqHandler(3)

NAME
Bio::SeqIO::tinyseq::tinyseqHandler - XML event handlers to support NCBI TinySeq XML parsing

SYNOPSIS
Do not use this module directly; use the SeqIO handler system:

  $stream = Bio::SeqIO->new( -file => $filename, -format => 'tinyseq' );

  while ( my $seq = $stream->next_seq ) {
    ....
  }

DESCRIPTION
This object provides event handler methods for parsing sequence files in the NCBI TinySeq XML format. A TinySeq is a lightweight XML file of sequence information on one or more sequences, analgous to FASTA format.

See <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/dtd/NCBI_TSeq.mod.dtd> for the DTD.

FEEDBACK

  Support
Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.
