The base classes are nice, but I prefer the design of > http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/cli a lot better for handling parameters. I suppose it's a matter of another external dependency vs. reinvented utility code in biojava . . . Would it make sense to merge the better qualities of the two? I also have a few simple classes for oneoff scripts with command line & logging facade support that I use all the time, see > http://www.shore.net/~heuermh/oneoff.tar.gz but they don't have any extra support for external programs. michael > > Check it out if you are interested: > http://www.dbsr.duke.edu/software/blast/default.htm .
