[Bioperl-l] RE: SeqWithQuality and biosql

Good point. I would prefer a system that only uses delimiters for 
ambiguous cases like the one you show but I guess thats pretty complex so 
maybe delimiters for every sub-alphabet.

That's why I didn't like it - how would you encode 
(DNAx(SubInteger[0..99]xSubInteger[0..99]) in this proposal? Require 
each component to be two-digit? There ought to be delimiters between 
the operands, no?
