Cheers Brian!
Do you think this script will work if I allow sequence and feature
'-format's to be picked by the user among all those listed as valid
file formats in BioPerl?
http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/HOWTO:SeqIO#Formats
http://search.cpan.org/~cjfields/BioPerl-1.6.1/Bio/FeatureIO.pm#SUPPORTED_FORMATS
Or should I stick to Fasta/GFF (or some other implementation)?
Cheers,
Dan.

The scripts/ directory scripts can be installed when Bioperl is installed, if the user wishes. The guidelines are that scripts/ directory scripts should accept command-line arguments (which yours does), should be named with the suffix 'PLS', and should have POD documentation. So, all you need is some POD. Here's some example POD:
