[Biojava-l] Blast2HTML - a new Blast-Like SAX parsing example

[Colin Hardman]

Hello,
        I've just checked in a new package called
org.biojava.bio.program.blast2html. It's a companion  to the
org.biojava.bio.program.sax package allowing you to go from blast-like
output to HTML, through a stream of SAX events. This means it should
scale to very large outputs indeed - though your browser may struggle!

There are faster ways of creating HTML from such an output, however it's
a nice example of how to write a content handler, plus I've added the
ability to markup the alignment in various ways. It should also work for
all the programs that can be parsed by the Blast-Like parser, though I
haven't tested them all.

There is a new program in the demos/eventbasedparsing called Blast2HTML
and the <A

has been updated, including some <A
