NAME

Bio::Annotation::Comment - A Comment on an Annotation

SYNOPSIS

    # comment objects attached to annotations
    foreach my $comment ( $seq->annotation->each_Comment() ) {
        # comment object currently pretty stupid. Just gives back 
        # text as a string
        $text = $comment->text();
    }

DESCRIPTION

A comment object is meant to represent one logical comment in a piece of annotation (common CC lines in EMBL files etc). At the moment is a very simple object, but this will give us a placeholder for more advanced things, eg, able to provide some XML stuff and eventually things like authorship tracking.

This object originally came from the Pfam annotation object
