Changes in release 0.04.3:

  - Bio::Root::Object.pm and Global.pm now detect when
    script is run as a CGI and suppress output that is only
    appropriate when running interactively.
  - Bio::Root::Err::_set_context() adds name of script ($0).
  - Added comments in Bio::Tools::WWW.pm and Bio::Root::Utilities.pm
    regarding the use of the static objects via the qw(:obj) tag.
  - Fixed the ambiguous reverse calls in Seq.pm and UnivAln.pm to 
    CORE::reverse, avoiding Perl warnings.
  - Bug fixes in Bio::Tools::Blast modules (version 0.074) and 
    example scripts (see Bio::Tools::Blast::CHANGES).
    [ http://bio.perl.org/Core/POD/Tools/Blast/CHANGES ]
  - examples/seq/seqtools.pl no longer always warns about using 
    -prot or -nucl command-line arguments; only when using the 
    -debug argument.
  - Methods added to Bio::Root::Utilities: create_filehandle(), 
    get_newline_char(), and taste_file() to generalize filehandle 
    creation and autodetect newline characters in files/streams
    (see bug report #19).
  - Bio::Root::IOManager::read() now handles timeouts and uses
    Utilities::create_filehandle().
  - Bio::Tools::Fasta.pm uses Utilities::get_newline_char()
    instead of hardwiring in "\n".
  - Bug fixes in the Bio::SimpleAlign and Bio::Tools::pSW
