I don't see how to do the things I commented in my post with MLDBM. Is it possible to interface a (for example) fasta file (see the example in my post) with MLDBM? I read carefully the documentation and it doesn't seem obvious to me how to do the trick. citromatik	[reply]

No, of course it doesn't read someone else's data format. It does provide a tied interface to complex data storage using only what comes with perl though, which I thought was what you were asking about. If you're specifically wondering about FASTA files, search for FASTA on CPAN. There are a handful of modules for it.	[reply]

No, of course it doesn't read someone else's data format That's why I did my own module :-) If you're specifically wondering about FASTA files, search for FASTA on CPAN. There are a handful of modules for it. Not specifically FASTA files. Any kind of data (provided that you give a way to index it) It's my fault, I think I didn't explain it properly Cheers citromatik	[reply]
