NAME

       Bio::Tools::Run::Genscan - Object for identifying genes in a given sequence given a matrix(for appropriate organisms).

SYNOPSIS

	 # Build a Genscan factory
	 my $param = ('MATRIX'=>HumanIso.smat);
	 my  $factory = Bio::Tools::Run::Genscan->new($param);

	 # Pass the factory a Bio::Seq object
	 #@genes is an array of Bio::Tools::Predictions::Gene objects
	 my @genes = $factory->run($seq);

DESCRIPTION

       Genscan is a gene identifying program developed by Christopher Burge http://genes.mit.edu/burgelab/

       By default it looks for an executable called genscan and data/parameter files in the directory specified by the GENSCANDIR environmental
       variable.
