I did have a look at scripting PHYLIP some time ago, but the lack of
command line arguments made this less than straight forward.
Your work sounds very interesting, and should make a useful addition to
BioPython. We will have to see what the maintainers make of it.
Do you have a link to the code?
Good documentation/examples would really be a bonus.
Thanks
