Hi Achim,

Well guessed. Yes, get_raw was added in Biopython 1.54, see
http://news.open-bio.org/news/2010/05/biopython-release-154/

Are you reading the current tutorial on line (rather than the
version shipped with Biopython 1.53)? It does mention this,
although maybe it could be in the FAQ as well... would that
help?
