[Bioperl-l] Genbank LOCUS entry

[Brian Osborne]

Matze,

You will write the Genbank entry to a string, using the Seq object
(http://bioperl.org/Core/Latest/faq.html#Q2.4), and use a regular
expression.

As shown in the little example skript the Perl::Seq object is obtained
from the ncbi database, there is no my-genbank-file. Your solution is a
workaround. It's looks a little ugly to me to save it into a genbank file
an grep the LOCUS line, back to the same perl script...
