[Bioperl-l] ESTs in EST format

[Jason Stajich]

Currently we don't support this format as far as I know it isn't a  
published standard nor is it a format that you NCBI distributes this  
data in flat format for (i.e. genbank dumps).

Is there any reason why you can't get what you need from the GenBank  
format?
