11/5/97 -- Notes for Bio::PreSeq distribution
          
       The name change from "Seq" to "PreSeq" is to emphasize
       the 'beta' nature of this module. Becuase major things
       remain on the "todo" list including possible changes
       to the interface methods, it was felt that "PreSeq"
       was more appropriate.


Installation:

Get the tar.gz file
Uncompress the .tar file with GNU unzip (gunzip on most systems)

Extract the .tar archive:
'tar -xvf Bio-PreSeq-0.xxx.tar'

Find the directory containing Makefile.PL

type 'perl Makefile.PL' (to create a system-specific makefile)
type 'make'
type 'make test'

There are also several other test scripts in examples/ directory.
Read the comments in the *.pl files as they will need to be
edited so as to contain proper system-specific filepaths.

type 'make install'  (may need admin access to do this...)

If you do not have the ability to use the traditional 'make install'
procedure, you can still use these modules by copying them to your
home directory or some other place that you have write access to.
Perl looks for modules by checking all the paths listed in '@INC'.
Read the documentation on the 'lib' module for an easy way to
add paths to @INC.

Read the POD (in .html form as well)  documentation and look at 
the example code to see how to access PreSeq.pm from your own code.

Note: When the PreSeq.pm and Parse.pm manpages are created during
      the make process, pod2man chokes on several lines of code for
      unknown reasons. Ignore these errors.
