[Bioperl-l] question about clustalw module.

[Jason Stajich]

the clustal alignment format does not allow for the description - if  
you want to preserve it you'll have to add it back, make a hash  
indexed by sequence ID and store the description, then when you get  
your alignment back you can update the description field before  
writing it out with AlignIO.
