[Bioperl-l] TBLAST Parsing

[jasonraymond]

Jasons,
Ahh this should have been my first suspicion... I'd been using the blast
module for parsing (not sure why now; must have been cutting code out of one
of the other example parsers which happened to use this module).  I'm using
v.91, so I'll rework this code using BPlite and see how this tackles the
problem.  thanks for the pointers -- jason
