=head1 NAME

Bio::Tools::EPCR - Parse ePCR output and make features

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    # A simple annotation pipeline wrapper for ePCR data
    # assuming ePCR data is already generated in file seq1.epcr
    # and sequence data is in fasta format in file called seq1.fa

    use Bio::Tools::EPCR;
    use Bio::SeqIO;
    my $parser = Bio::Tools::EPCR->new(-file => 'seq1.epcr');
    my $seqio = Bio::SeqIO->new(-format => 'fasta', -file => 'seq1.fa');
    my $seq = $seqio->next_seq || die("cannot get a seq object from SeqIO");

    while( my $feat = $parser->next_feature ) {
	# add EPCR annotation to a sequence
	$seq->add_SeqFeature($feat);
    }
    my $seqout = Bio::SeqIO->new(-format => 'embl');
    $seqout->write_seq($seq);


=head1 DESCRIPTION

This object serves as a parser for ePCR data, creating a
Bio::SeqFeatureI for each ePCR hit.  These can be processed or added
as annotation to an existing Bio::SeqI object for the purposes of
automated annotation.

=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 $epcr = Bio::Tools::EPCR->new(-file => $file,
					   -primary => $fprimary, 
					   -source => $fsource, 
					   -groupclass => $fgroupclass);
 Function: Initializes a new EPCR parser
 Returns : Bio::Tools::EPCR
 Args    : -fh   => filehandle
           OR
           -file => filename

           -primary => a string to be used as the common value for
                       each features '-primary' tag.  Defaults to
                       'sts'.  (This in turn maps to the GFF 'type'
                       tag (aka 'method')).

            -source => a string to be used as the common value for
                       each features '-source' tag.  Defaults to
                       'e-PCR'. (This in turn maps to the GFF 'source'
                       tag)

             -groupclass => a string to be used as the name of the tag
                           which will hold the sts marker namefirst
                           attribute.  Defaults to 'name'.
