NAME

       Bio::Tools::Run::Glimmer - Wrapper for local execution of Glimmer, GlimmerM and GlimmerHMM.

SYNOPSIS

         # glimmer2
         my $factory =
             Bio::Tools::Run::Glimmer->new('-program' => 'glimmer3',
                                           '-model'   => 'model.icm');
         # glimmer3
         my $factory =
             Bio::Tools::Run::Glimmer->new('-program' => 'glimmer2',
                                           '-model'   => 'model.icm');
         # glimmerm
         my $factory =
             Bio::Tools::Run::Glimmer->new('-program' => 'glimmerm');

         # glimmerHMM
         my $factory =
             Bio::Tools::Run::Glimmer->new('-program' => 'glimmerHMM');

         # Pass the factory Bio::Seq objects
         # returns a Bio::Tools::Glimmer object
         my $glimmer = $factory->run($seq);
         or
         my $glimmer = $factor->run(@seq);

DESCRIPTION

       Wrapper module for the Glimmer family of programs.  Should work with all currently available flavors:
       Glimmer, GlimmerM and GlimmerHMM.  However, only Glimmer 2.X and 3.X have been tested.

       Glimmer is open source and available at <http://www.cbcb.umd.edu/software/glimmer/>.

       GlimmerM is open source and available at <http://www.tigr.org/software/glimmerm/>.

       GlimmerHMM is open source and available at <http://www.cbcb.umd.edu/software/GlimmerHMM/>.

       Note that Glimmer 2.X will only process the first sequence in a fasta file (if you run() more than one
       sequence at a time, only the first will be processed).

       Note that Glimmer 3.X produces two output files.  This module only passes the .predict file to
       Bio::Tools::Glimmer.

       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.

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

       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.

   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:
