The other (non-fasta, non-fastq) sequence format I can think of is biosff. This is the format used by 454 and IonTorrent sequencers, and is a bit more involved, since the "sequence" is really a string of "intensities", which are interpreted as runs of the same nucleotide. (You can think of it as an approximate run-length encoding using fixed-precision reals). Is that what you're looking for? -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
