[Bioperl-l] parse columns file

[Jordi Durban]

Thank you very much John. The output should be the two fields from each
entry. In the example above, it should be:
*uaccno=FF56QEU12HD1LC *   *gi|166216293|sp|P0C616.1|PA2HA_BOTAS
**uaccno=FF56QEU12HMBY2*    *gi|166216293|sp|P0C616.1|PA2HA_BOTAS *
*uaccno=FF56QEU12HDB9V *  * gi|166215047|sp|P24605.3|PA2H2_BOTAS

*According to http://perl.about.com/od/filesystem/a/perl_parse_tabs.htm I
have to do:

open (FILE, 'data.txt');
 while (<FILE>) {
 chomp;
 ($name, $email, $phone) = split("\t");
 print "Name: $name\n";
 print "Email: $email\n";
 print "Phone: $phone\n";

 print "---------\n";
 }

 close (FILE);

But this script doesn't deal with the duplicated lines...
