[Biojava-l] FASTA Header Parser

[Hannes Brandstätter-Müller]

Hi there -

I just came across a puzzling "feature" of the GenericFastaHeaderParser.
It seems to throw away everything in the header after (and including) "length="
(see GenericFastaHeaderParser.java lines 71-76)

... Why?

Also, is there a Fasta Header Parser I can use that does not mess
about with the header?

I really would like to have that as key (still working on my
FASTA/QUAL parsing) and not having that (only in the originalHeader,
not in the Hashmap key) really breaks stuff.
