No need to use Bio::Alignment::MultiFastaFormat in this case.
Bio::FlatFile alone can do.

For example, to read from stdin and output to stdout,

  require 'bio'
  Bio::FlatFile.open($<) do |ff|
    ff.each do |e|
      print e.to_biosequence.output(:genbank)
    end
  end

Note that the output(:genbank) are new feature only in
the latest development version in the git repository.

(i.e. in BioRuby 1.2.1, above examples cannot be run.)
