I would think that no "close" is needed in PDBParser's get_structure method. If
the argument "file" is an open handle, get_structure closes it, which appears
to be an unwanted side-effect. If the argument "file" is a string, then "file =
open(file)" in get_structure opens a file, and Python will close it for you
once the file variable goes out of scope (when the function returns). Thomas,
am I missing something? Do you have any objections against removing the
"close"?
