#' Methods to import, export and manipulate BLAT result data.
#' 
#' @description
#' This pacakge enables the import, export, and analysis of BLAT result files, mostly in the
#' form of PSL-formatted BLAT alignment results. This code is really old, so the package is a
#' work in progress. IIRC, I ported some of Jim Kent's orgiinal C code to calculate alignment scores
#' etc...
