[Biojava-dev] Parsing protein EMBL files with RichSequence.IOTools.readEMBLProtein

[Peter]

Hi BioJava team et al,

Thanks for the indirect alert that protein EMBL files exist, e.g.
ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/embl/patent/epo_prt.dat.gz

I've just updated Biopython to support them.

Chris - I've CC'd you in case you want to look at this for BioPerl.
