TFBS::PatternI \- interface definition for all pattern objects (currently
includes matrices and word (consensus and regular expressions )
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
TFBS::PatternI is a draft class that should contain general interface for matrix and other (future) pattern objects. It is not defined and not used yet, as I need to ponder over certain unresolved issues in general pattern definition. User feedback is more than welcome.
