[Bioperl-l] How to read seq and quals into Bio::Seq::Quality object?

[Florent Angly]

I have looked at the issue before and haven't found an existing way that 
import nicely a FASTA and QUAL file at the same time. It would be 
valuable in my opinion, but at the moment I think you have to create two 
SeqIO objects and go through all the sequence records in both of them 
simultaneously.
