[Bioperl-l] One to three letter code for amino acids

[Heikki Lehvaslaiho]

Kris,

I brought this up a year or so ago. The consensus then was that we should
not overload current interfaces but instead collect these utility functions
in a separate place. I've put several, including this one, into
Bio::SeqUtils. 

There is  no three-to-one public method in CodonTable and there really
should not be.
