[Biopython-dev] Parsing PAML supplementary output

Ok, I'll file an enhancement request there. I didn't see a link on the
Bugzilla page and there are still some links to Bugzilla on the wiki,
like in the "What's being worked on" section. I missed the Issue Tracker
link on the left (incidentally, I think this is a design problem of the
typical wiki layout and not Biopython-specific...I never notice the
contents of that list), so it might be advisable to include the link
under the Contribute heading of the main page.

Ok, I'll take a look at the PHYLIP source code to see how they do it
there.

I'll report back with problems/notable progress/questions.
