[Bioperl-l] repeatmasker

[Mauricio Herrera Cuadra]

Hi Karen,

It seems like you don't have the RepeatMasker executable installed in 
your machine and available for BioPerl to make use of it. You'll need to 
download and install it first. You can do it from here:

http://www.repeatmasker.org/

I don't know if there's a compiled version of RM available for Windows. 
Does anyone knows about this? Chris, Nathan?

Regards,
Mauricio.
