+ This is a collection of data structures and algorithms
+ useful for building bioinformatics-related tools
+ and utilities.
+
+ Current list of features includes: a Sequence data type supporting
+ protein and nucleotide sequences and conversion between them. As of version
+ 0.4, different kinds of sequence have different types. Support for quality
+ data, reading and writing Fasta formatted files, reading TwoBit and
+ phd formats, and Roche/454 SFF files. Rudimentary (i.e. unoptimized) support
+ for doing alignments - including dynamic adjustment of scores based on sequence quality.
+ Also Blast output parsing. Partly implemented single linkage clustering, and
+ multiple alignment. Reading Gene Ontology (GO) annotations (GOA) and
+ definitions\/hierarchy.
+
+ The Darcs repository is at: &lt;http://malde.org/~ketil/biohaskell/biolib&gt;.
