[Bioperl-l] Example code in Bioperl Tutorial

Wed Jun 27 01:01:29 UTC 2007

Hello, 
  The tutorial code snippet is an endless loop, I think it's supposed
to remove the rid.  As the only print statement you added is after the
endless loop, you aren't seeing anything happen.   

Use the code from this instead,

perldoc Bio::Tools::Run::RemoteBlast

  The bptutorial.pl does have a note that it's not useful and to read the pod
for Bio::Tools::Run::RemoteBlast, it's in the next sentences after the code
snippet you used.  

  Though, as it's a tutorial example it might be nice to remove the while
loop .. or at least add the sleep(5) part.

  Aside from that, you may have network issues but www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
doesn't respond to ping as far as I can tell.
