Bio::SeqIO::asciitree(3)

NAME
Bio::SeqIO::asciitree - asciitree sequence input/output stream

SYNOPSIS
  # It is probably best not to use this object directly, but
  # rather go through the SeqIO handler system. Go:

    $instream  = Bio::SeqIO->new(-file => $filename,
                                 -format => 'chadoxml');
    $outstream = Bio::SeqIO->new(-file => $filename,
                                 -format => 'asciitree');

    while ( my $seq = $instream->next_seq() ) {
            $outstream->write_seq();
    }

DESCRIPTION
This is a WRITE-ONLY SeqIO module. It writes a Bio::SeqI object containing nested SeqFeature objects in such a way that the SeqFeature containment hierarchy is visible as a tree structure
