NAME

       Bio::DB::Ace - Database object interface to ACeDB servers

SYNOPSIS

           $db = Bio::DB::Ace->new( -server => 'myace.server.com', port => '120000');

           $seq = $db->get_Seq_by_id('J00522'); # Unique ID

           # or ...

           $seq = $db->get_Seq_by_acc('J00522'); # Accession Number

DESCRIPTION

       This provides a standard BioPerl database access to Ace, using Lincoln Steins excellent
       AcePerl module. You need to download and install the aceperl module from

         http://stein.cshl.org/AcePerl/

       before this interface will work.

       This interface is designed at the moment to work through a aceclient/aceserver type
       mechanism

INSTALLING ACEPERL

       Download the latest aceperl tar file, gunzip/untar and cd into the directory.  This is a
       standard CPAN-style directory, so if you go

         Perl Makefile.PL
         make
         <become root>
         make install

       Then you will have installed Aceperl. Use the PREFIX mechanism to install elsewhere.
