bioperl-l,=20

The Parse.pm modules in these three Tools directories (PPSEARCH, PRINTS, =
PRFSCAN) all contain the statement "use SeqFeatureSet", which doesn't =
exist in 1.0. What these modules are doing is parsing the results files =
from these programs (fingerPRINTScan in the case of PRINTS) and making =
matches into SeqFeature::Generic objects, then using add_Feature to add =
the SeqFeatures to the "set". Definitely a nice use of the SeqFeature =
feature, in principle.

My guess is that there's no longer any such thing as a set of =
SeqFeatures separate from sequence objects, is that correct? Should =
these modules simply return arrays of SeqFeature::Generic objects?

I could "mess" around in this code but there appears to be no test data =
files in t/. Could the authors step in and help out? Fix the Parse.pm =
modules and/or provide some results files that I could use?

Thank you,

Brian O.
