<p class="MsoNormal">Warren - this is an old module and not currently maintained, but it should still work. You can find it at
<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/bioperl/bioperl-ext__;!!DZ3fjg!uSvOF9SuI7pDulK8EWVNYLGvFzexZNOGo8D4-QUVZXWuLtXUoAXqcFQPD2qZMRBq8sA$">

There are some details on installation there. Your mileage may vary, but post to the list if you run into trouble.<br>
