[Biojava-l] abi2xml a new parser of abi trace files

[Erik Sjölund]

Biojava contains a class to parse abi trace files:

http://www.biojava.org/docs/api14/org/biojava/bio/program/abi/ABITrace.html

So you might be interested to know that a new command line utility has
been released

http://abi2xml.sourceforge.net

that converts abi trace files to xml files. This bioinformatics
utility is written in C++ and released under the GPL license. A java
programmer could first convert the abi files to xml files and then
access the information over a DOM interface  or over XPATH. Probably
that java programmer has nothing to gain doing this compared to using
the ABITrace class, but I thought it was worth mentioning the
possibility.
