# Bio::Tools::EMBOSS::Palindrome(3pm)

parse EMBOSS palindrome output

## NAME

Bio::Tools::EMBOSS::Palindrome - parse EMBOSS palindrome output

## SYNOPSIS

```
  # a simple script to turn palindrome output into GFF3
  use Bio::Tools::EMBOSS::Palindrome;
  use Bio::Tools::GFF;
  my $parser = Bio::Tools::EMBOSS::Palindrome->new(-file => $filename);
  my $out    = Bio::Tools::GFF->new(-gff_version => 3,
                                   -file => ">$filename.gff");
  while( my $seq = $parser->next_seq ) {
     for my $feat ( $seq->get_SeqFeatures ) {
        $out->write_feature($feat);
     }
  }
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is a parser for the EMBOSS tool 'palindrome'.  It will produce a Bio::Seq object for each sequence analyzed.  The sequence will be empty (but will be of the correct length) and will have attached to it Bio::SeqFeature::FeaturePair objects which wil

### FUTURE WORK

It may be consolidated into another framework at a later time, but for the time being it will stay a separate modules.

## FEEDBACK

### Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation is much appreciated.

### Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

*bioperl-l@bioperl.org*

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and  reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly  address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem  with code and data examples if at all possible.
