[EMBOSS] infoseq table format issues

[Marc Logghe]

Never mind.
Just found out that in Excel you have the option to define multiple
delimiters AND treat consecutive delimiters as one ...
Guess I don't use spreadsheets regularly enough ;-)
On the other hand, I think it would be 'cleaner' if infoseq would stick
to a single type of delimiter.
Cheers,
Marc
