If you consult the FASTA format spec, all the lines in between headers will be the same length (except the last) and that count has no more significance than it is an arbitrary wrap point. All the lines between two header constitute as single sequence, not a set of sequences. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
