in reply to Re^5: concatenating multiple lines without using . operator
in thread concatenating multiple lines without using . operator

I think this might cause a problem since there will be occasional lines that look like >chr02 which are the sequence IDs and meant to be hash keys. Slurping like this would miss the transition between chromosomes or distinct DNA sequences.

    I acknowledge your point - I'm still not clear about what the OP's requirements are - I was merely trying to show how she/he could slurp and concatenate.

                 I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it.
