NAME

       Bio::SeqIO::tinyseq::tinyseqHandler - XML event handlers to support NCBI TinySeq XML
       parsing

SYNOPSIS

       Do not use this module directly; use the SeqIO handler system:

         $stream = Bio::SeqIO->new( -file => $filename, -format => 'tinyseq' );

         while ( my $seq = $stream->next_seq ) {
           ....
         }

DESCRIPTION

       This object provides event handler methods for parsing sequence files in the NCBI TinySeq
       XML format.  A TinySeq is a lightweight XML file of sequence information on one or more
       sequences, analgous to FASTA format.

       See <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/dtd/NCBI_TSeq.mod.dtd> for the DTD.

       User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send
       your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list.  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 of the bugs and their
       resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the web:
