Hi,

I have a simple silly question:  Is there any reason that the dna tokens as
specified in AlphabetManager.xml  are lowercase rather than uppercase?  All
of the sources we see use uppercase by default.  

This can be easily worked around, but not without a cost in terms of string
generation and memory usage.

Thank you for your patience with newbies.
