Hi All,

I'd like to ask you for assistance on how to extract some fields from gff
files. Say from the attached file, I'd like to get the sequence name (the 
string inside the double quotes). Could you please show me how to do
this? I have tried methods from the Bio::SeqFeatureI module but none of
them do the trick.

Thanks,

Jack
