Thanks - I was going to look at this today.
Something funny seems to have happened to the plain text version:
http://cvs.biopython.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/biopython/Doc/Tutorial.txt.diff?r1=1.5&r2=1.6&cvsroot=biopython
(a) The old "Title" is missing above the contents listing
(b) Contents entries contain which is nasty for plain text.
(b) Section references now contain odd text. Is it possible you only
ran the TeX file once? Usually with references TeX should be run twice
(and in extreme cases, three times)
In an earlier discussion it was suggested we remove the plain text
documentation from CVS, which I objected to as plain text is much easier
for non-TeX people to read.
If generating a consistent plain text version is a lot of hassle, then
maybe we can live without it?

I can't help you there - I was going to post to the Developer mailing
list to see if anyone had done this recently. Have you been able to
generate new HTML and Tutorial.pdf files?
Looks like you have also updated the text about the Blast parser :)
