[Bioperl-l] Re: [Gmod-gbrowse] Translation glyph

[Aaron J. Mackey]

But the translation glyph code could easily do the necessary  
substitutions.  I agree it should not be done from  
Bio::Tools::CodonTable

I just checked in the patch to bioperl for translation.pm to enable  
"triletter_code" as an option (defaults to 0).  Give it a try.  I'm  
happy to back it out if there are problems.
