[Bioperl-l] FASTA format check

[Zhi-Qiang Ye]

Thanks, Edward and Fabian.

The Guess module is for guessing formats of valid input, which is not
my requirement.

As for my testing,

>protein\nAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaa  ==> fasta

>proteinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA  ==> fasta

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaa  ==> undefined value

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA  ==> raw

so, what I need is not this one.


Thanks anyway.
Best wishes!
