Hi all,
I was wondering whether some of the rather arbitrary restrictions on input 
files for the process of forging as new Bsgenome package could be liftet. In 
particular:

Why do we need all chromosomes in individual files? Couldn�t the function be 
smart enough to just extract the relevant bits from a single file containing 
all chromosomes? Or even from several such files?

Why are gzipped files not allowed? Pretty much all tools in Biostrings seem to 
be able to deal with gzipped fasta files these days.

Thanks,
Florian
