Hi,

I want to do the following:

Starting whith a GB entry, i search for a feature. Then I look into the
location of the feature. (easy)

Now, e.g. the location is join(SEQ1:1..5,SEQ2:4..7) (or more complex) I
want to get the sequence for this location (assuming SEQ1 and SEQ2 are
stored somewhere local), also I want the get for a position inside the
location the position in the corresponding entry.

Looking through the code, I assume GFF.easy would be a good starting
point. Do you agree? Btw. what GFF stands for? It's not an acronym I
know.

Also GFF.easy defines a ambiguous_rna_complement starting from
Bio.Data.IUPACData.ambiguous_dna_complement. Wouldn't this fit better
into Bio.Data.IUPACData as well?

Ciao, Andreas
