Add possibility of using TD GFF3 files instead of the BED files, for loading the longest ORFs #55

Closed lucventurini closed 8 years ago

lucventurini commented 8 years ago

This is due to the fact that TransDecoder does not create the BED file during LongOrf, but only a GFF3 file. This will require a separate parsing.

This is probably less useful than it sounds - initial testing on Arabidopsis indicated a decrease in performance by Mikado, not an increase

This has become trivial since the Transcript objects now support conversion to BED12. Although inelegant, it is possible to create BED12 objects simply with:

orf_object = BED12(transcript.format("bed12")).

The utility of doing so seems very limited though. Ignoring and closing for now.
