[Bioperl-l] Alignment from blast report

Tue Mar 2 15:17:35 UTC 2010

I think you got the sense, thank you. Of course hsps from different
hits will be reflected in different elements aligned. I've attached
the example pasted (unix text) because is more readable, hoping will
not be held by the mailing server :-)

Thank you,
Paolo
