Hi, Monks (german:Hallo Brüder),
i have a little problem with BioPerl. I want to write a Tk-program that shows a complete swissProt entry in a text widget. 
 
my $gb = new Bio::DB::SwissProt();
my $seq1 = $gb->get_Seq_by_Acc($id);
my $seqOut = new Bio::SeqIO(-format=>'swiss');
$seqOut->write_seq($seq1);

[download]
The last line prints the swissprot entry in the dos-window, but I want to have the file in one variable, so that I later can insert it in a text-field of Tk?

How to get the stream ($seqOut->write_seq($seq1)) in a variable.

Thanks!
10 pater nostrum for you, if one can help me!
