[Biojava-dev] BioJava FastaReader to read lower-case fasta sequences

Hi,

having a flag to convert all lower case to upper case should be only a
small patch. I guess another question related to this is what
approaches other people have taken to encode chemically modified
residues in sequences in the most user friendly way. Any
recommendations?
