NAME

       Bio::Tools::Match - Parses output from Transfac's match(TM)

SYNOPSIS

         use strict;

         use Bio::Tools::Match;

         my $parser = Bio::Tools::Match->new(-file => "match.out");

         while (my $feat = $parser->next_result) {
           my $start = $feat->start;
           my $end = $feat->end;
           my $core_score = $feat->score;
           my $matrix_score = ($feat->annotation->get_Annotations('matrix_score'))[0]->value;
           my $matrix_id = ($feat->annotation->get_Annotations('matrix_id'))[0]->value;
         }

DESCRIPTION

       This module is used to parse the output from Transfac's match(TM) program. It doesn't
       support the histogram output of match.

       Each result is a Bio::SeqFeature::Annotated representing a single matrix match.

   Support
       Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

       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.

APPENDIX

       The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods.  Internal methods are
       usually preceded with a _

   new
        Title   : new
        Usage   : my $obj = Bio::Tools::Match->new();
        Function: Builds a new Bio::Tools::Match object
        Returns : Bio::Tools::Match
        Args    : -file (or -fh) should contain the contents of a standard match output

   next_result
        Title   : next_result
        Usage   : $result = $obj->next_result();
        Function: Returns the next result available from the input, or undef if there
                  are no more results.
        Returns : Bio::SeqFeature::Annotated object. Features are annotated with tags
                  for 'matrix_score', 'matrix_id' and a 'predicted' tag.
        Args    : none
