Yes - I've only done this by streaming through, and only handled the XML format, so it's not likely any of my stuff is very useful to you, anyway. > But if your current approach handles this as well, I'd be happy too.

It's possible that this is better handled by separate libraries - BLAST makes different information available in the different formats, so it's likely that the data structures will need to reflect these differences - although common stuff could be factored out, of course. -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants _______________________________________________ Biohaskell mailing list Biohaskell@biohaskell.org http://malde.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/biohaskell
