=head1 NAME

Bio::Tools::Run::Genscan - Object for identifying genes in a
given sequence given a matrix(for appropriate organisms).

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # Build a Genscan factory
  my $param = ('MATRIX'=>HumanIso.smat);
  my  $factory = Bio::Tools::Run::Genscan->new($param);

  # Pass the factory a Bio::Seq object
  #@genes is an array of Bio::Tools::Predictions::Gene objects
  my @genes = $factory->run($seq);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Genscan is a gene identifying program developed by Christopher Burge
http://genes.mit.edu/burgelab/

By default it looks for an executable called I<genscan> and data/parameter files
in the directory specified by the I<GENSCANDIR> environmental variable.

=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:
