[Bioperl-l] embl parser to extract exon lengths from feature table (FT)

[Zayed Albertyn]

Hi there

I would like to know if there is a quick and neat way in perl or bioperl
to extract the lengths of exons from FT in EMBL format e.g.

FT   mRNA
complement(join(501..977,1182..1358,3721..3871,6060..6147,
FT                   8480..8591))
FT                   /note=EST2genome
FT                   /evidence=EXPERIMENTAL


All I would like are the lengths. I could write a script to do this but
somehow I feel that it has already been done in bioperl.

Thanks
Zayed
