[Bioperl-l] Parsing Genbank

Hi all,
I am not sure if this is normal, but when I use SEQIO to parse genbank files, it changes the coordinates of things on the minus strand.


For example, I have a sequence that has a CDS on the minus strand at it is from 911 to 974.  The sequence is 974 nt.

x $cds->start
1
x $cds->end
64

How can I get the original coordinates?  Is there a command for that or will I have to just do the math?

Feature or Bug?
