=head1 NAME

Bio::SearchIO::exonerate - parser for Exonerate

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # do not use this module directly, it is a driver for SearchIO

  use Bio::SearchIO;
  my $searchio = Bio::SearchIO->new(-file => 'file.exonerate',
                                   -format => 'exonerate');


  while( my $r = $searchio->next_result ) {
    print $r->query_name, "\n";
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a driver for the SearchIO system for parsing Exonerate (Guy
Slater) output.  You can get Exonerate at
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~guy/exonerate/
[until Guy puts up a Web reference,publication for it.]).

An optional parameter -min_intron is supported by the L<new>
initialization method.  This is if you run Exonerate with a different
minimum intron length (default is 30) the parser will be able to
detect the difference between standard deletions and an intron.  Still
some room to play with there that might cause this to get
misinterpreted that has not been fully tested or explored.

The VULGAR and CIGAR formats should be parsed okay now creating HSPs
where appropriate (so merging match states where appropriate rather
than breaking an HSP at each indel as it may have done in the past).
The GFF that comes from exonerate is still probably a better way to go
if you are doing protein2genome or est2genome mapping.
For example you can see this script:

### TODO: Jason, this link is dead, do we have an updated one?
http://fungal.genome.duke.edu/~jes12/software/scripts/process_exonerate_gff3.perl.txt

If your report contains both CIGAR and VULGAR lines only the first one
will processed for a given Query/Target pair.  If you preferentially
want to use VULGAR or CIGAR add one of these options when initializing
the SearchIO object.

    -cigar  => 1
OR
    -vulgar => 1

Or set them via these methods.

    $parser->cigar(1)
OR
    $parser->vulgar(1)



=head1 FEEDBACK

=head2 Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to
the Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation is much appreciated.

=head2 Support 

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and 
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly 
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem 
with code and data examples if at all possible.

=head2 Reporting Bugs

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
of the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the
web:

=head2 new

 Title   : new
 Usage   : my $obj = Bio::SearchIO::exonerate->new();
 Function: Builds a new Bio::SearchIO::exonerate object
 Returns : an instance of Bio::SearchIO::exonerate
 Args    : -min_intron => somewhat obselete option, how to determine if a
                          an indel is an intron or a local gap.  Use VULGAR
                          rather than CIGAR to avoid this heuristic,default 30.
           -cigar       => 1   set this to 1 if you want to parse
                               CIGAR exclusively.
           -vulgar      => 1   set this to 1 if you want to parse VULGAR
                               exclusively, setting both to 1 will revert
                               to the default behavior of just parsing the
                               first line that it sees.
