=head1 DESCRIPTION 

This script will B<unflatten> a genbank or genbank-style file of
SeqFeatures into a nested hierarchy.

See L<Bio::SeqFeature::Tools::Unflattener>

In a GenBank/EMBL representation, features are 'flat' - for example,
there is no link between an mRNA and a CDS, other than implicit links
(eg via tags or via splice site coordinates) which may be hard to code
for.

This is most easily illustrated with the default output format,
B<asciitree>

An unflattened genbank feature set may look like this (AB077698)

The unflattening will also 'normalize' the containment hierarchy (in
the sense of standardising it - e.g. making sure there is always a
transcript record, even if genbank just specifies CDS and gene)

By default, the GenBank types will be mapped to SO types

See L<Bio::SeqFeature::Tools::TypeMapper>

=head1 COMMAND LINE ARGUMENTS

=over

=item -i|input FILE

input file (can also be specified as last argument)

=item -from FORMAT

input format (defaults to genbank)

probably doesnt make so much sense to use this for non-flat formats;
ie other than embl/genbank

=item -to FORMAT

output format (defaults to asciitree)

should really be a format that is nested SeqFeature aware; I think
this is only asciitree, chadoxml and gff3

=item -gff

with export to GFF3 format (pre-3 GFFs make no sense with unflattened
sequences, as they have no set way of representing feature graphs)

=item -o|output FILE

outfile defaults to STDOUT

=item -detail

show extra detail on features (asciitree mode only)

=item -e|ethresh INT

sets the error threshold on unflattening

by default this script will throw a wobbly if it encounters weird
stuff in the genbank file - raise the error threshold to signal these
to be ignored (and reported on STDERR)

=item -nomagic

suppress use_magic in unflattening (see
L<Bio::SeqFeature::Tools::Unflattener>

=item -notypemap

suppress type mapping (see
L<Bio::SeqFeature::Tools::TypeMapper>


=back

=head1 TODO

L<Bio::SeqFeature::Tools::Unflattener> allows fine-grained control
over the unflattening process - need to add more options to allow this
control at the command line
