=head1 NAME

Bio::SeqIO::metafasta - metafasta sequence input/output stream

=head1 SYNOPSIS

Do not use this module directly.  Use it via the Bio::SeqIO class.

  use Bio::SeqIO;

  # read the metafasta file
  $io = Bio::SeqIO->new(-file => "test.metafasta",
                        -format => "metafasta" );

  $seq = $io->next_seq;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This object can transform Bio::Seq::Meta objects to and from metafasta
flat file databases.

For sequence part the code is an exact copy of Bio::SeqIO::fasta
module. The only added bits deal with meta data IO.

The format of a metafasta file is

  >test
  ABCDEFHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
  &charge
  NBNAANCNJCNNNONNCNNUNNXNZ
  &chemical
  LBSAARCLJCLSMOIMCHHULRXRZ

where the sequence block is followed by one or several meta blocks.
Each meta block starts with the ampersand character '&' in the first
column and is immediately followed by the name of the meta data which
continues until the new line. The meta data follows it. All
characters, except new line, are important in meta data.

=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 one
of the Bioperl mailing lists.  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
the bugs and their resolution.  Bug reports can be submitted via the
web:
