Bio::AlignIO::psi - Read/Write PSI-BLAST profile alignment files
=head1 SYNOPSIS
This module will parse PSI-BLAST output of the format seqid XXXX
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is a parser for psi-blast blocks.
=head1 FEEDBACK
=head2 Mailing Lists
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.

=head2 Support
Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
I<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
