   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.

       usually preceded with a _

   in
        Title   : in
        Usage   : $obj->in('peptide');
        Function: Set and read the input coordinate system.
        Example :
        Returns : value of input system
        Args    : new value (optional), Bio::LocationI

   out
        Title   : out
        Usage   : $obj->out('peptide');
        Function: Set and read the output coordinate system.
        Example :
        Returns : value of output system
        Args    : new value (optional), Bio::LocationI

   swap
        Title   : swap
        Usage   : $obj->swap;
        Function: Swap the direction of mapping: input <-> output)
        Example :
        Returns : 1
        Args    :

   test
        Title   : test
        Usage   : $obj->test;
        Function: test that both components are of same length
        Example :
        Returns : ( 1 | undef )
        Args    :

   map
        Title   : map
        Usage   : $newpos = $obj->map($loc);
        Function: Map the location from the input coordinate system
                  to a new value in the output coordinate system.
        Example :
        Returns : new value in the output coordiante system
        Args    : Bio::LocationI

   return_match
        Title   : return_match
        Usage   : $obj->return_match(1);
        Function: A flag to turn on the simplified mode of
                  returning only one joined Match object or undef
        Example :
        Returns : boolean
        Args    : boolean (optional)
