Hi Chris,

unfortunately there's no documentation yet - my bad. But in short, to
read your data like

from Bio.Nexus import Nexus

nex=Nexus.Nexus('my_file.nex')

and then access data like

nex.taxlabels
nex.nchar
nex.charsets
nex.trees

etc.

I hope most of the methods have a descriptive title and are easy to use.
Let me know if I can help further. And I promise to write some
documentation, but it won't be before end of August.

Cheers,
Frank
