The BLAST parser in the SRS distribution is for an older version of BLAST. I
would be really grateful for suggestions on a syntax that is suitable for
different
versions. We use here at EBI indeed the GCG tools to generate the databanks
in
FASTA format. The parser that reads the title line of each BLAST entry should
be able to read a variety of formats but there is no way of telling whether
entry
name or accession number comes first.
