Jason,

I think he wants to print out the exact same alignment as you see in the
BLAST report, which you can't do using AlignIO.

Nathan, do you mean "exactly", with that "Query: 2" and "Subject: 2"
business as well?

You want to retain it meaning what?
 Bio::SearchIO(-format => 'blast')
parses blast for you.
