[Bioperl-l] Bio::SeqIO::genbank Keywords Question

[Hilmar Lapp]

Hmm ... don't know why.

Also, it appears Bio::Seq::RichSeqI::keywords returns a string, not an 
array. It should be an array you would think wouldn't you? I'm 
wondering whether there is a magic reason for all of this or is this 
simply something to be fixed.
