[Bioperl-l] Entrez Gene parser

[Stefan Kirov]

No. That was also Hilmar's concern. So I followed his advice to use 
wantarray, so if you do

$so = $eg->next_seq; 
you get get only one Bio::Seq object,
but if you do 
my ($gene,$gstruct,$uncapt)=$eg->next_seq;

you get everything. Actually this is in the documentation, though it is 
pretty sketchy right now.
