Dear all,
Ten years ago we talked about subclassing Seq objects from a string:

Can we move forward?As the Seq documentation says, a Seq object is essentially a string with an alphabet.Then, following the object oriented programming paradigm, Seq objects should inherit from a string object.
This would help with C extensions that take Seq or string objects as arguments (as both can then be treated as strings).
Best,-Michiel
