[Bioperl-l] SeqIO: Validate File-Format

[Johnny Amos]

Ooops... I thought I had already searched the archive at:
http://bioperl.org/pipermail/bioperl-l/

When I used the search form there, nothing came up under "validate AND 
format".  Hmm, actually now that I it try again, I can't really get *any* 
hits from that search form, although it works from the link you have.  Is 
there a trick to that search form I don't know?

And thank you for the references: solves my problem exactly. :)
