I've used '.acc' for accesion number properties in the current HMMER3
and BLAST parsers, but this choice was arbitrary. '.accession' is a
good name. I didn't use it because I like shorter names better, but
then again it may be unclear at times.
Does anyone have preference between '.acc' or '.accession'? If not, I
can change the current '.acc' into '.accession'.
cheers,
Bow
