=head1 NAME 

Bio::Tools::Alignment::Trim - A kludge to do specialized trimming of
	sequence based on quality.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Bio::Tools::Alignment::Trim;
  $o_trim = Bio::Tools::Alignment::Trim->new();
  $o_trim->set_reverse_designator("R");
  $o_trim->set_forward_designator("F");


=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a specialized module designed by Chad for Chad to trim sequences
based on a highly specialized list of requirements. In other words, write
something that will trim sequences 'just like the people in the lab would
do manually'.

I settled on a sliding-window-average style of search which is ugly and
slow but does _exactly_ what I want it to do.

Mental note: rewrite this.

It is very important to keep in mind the context in which this module was
written: strictly to support the projects for which Consed.pm was
designed.

=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 one
of the Bioperl mailing lists.  Your participation is much appreciated.

  bioperl-l@bioperl.org                  - General discussion
  http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists     - About the mailing
lists

=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 
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem 
with code and data examples if at all possible.

=head2 Reporting Bugs

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
the bugs and their resolution.  Bug reports can be submitted via the

 Title   : new()
 Usage   : $o_trim = Bio::Tools::Alignment::Trim->new();
 Function: Construct the Bio::Tools::Alignment::Trim object. No parameters
	   are required to create this object. It is strictly a bundle of
	   functions, as far as I am concerned.
 Returns : A reference to a Bio::Tools::Alignment::Trim object.
 Args    : (optional)
           -windowsize (default 10)
           -phreds (default 20)

 Returns : Nothing.
 Args    : A string representing the forward designator of this project.

=cut 

sub set_reverse_designator {
    my ($self,$desig) = @_;
    $self->{'r_designator'} = $desig;
}

=head2 get_designators()

 Title   : get_designators()
 Usage   : $o_trim->get_designators()
 Returns : A string describing the current designators.
 Args    : None
 Notes   : Really for informational purposes only. Duh.

=head2 trim_leading_polys()

 Title   : trim_leading_polys()
 Usage   : $o_trim->trim_leading_polys()
 Function: Not implemented. Does nothing.
 Returns : Nothing.
 Args    : None.
 Notes   : This function is not implemented. Part of something I wanted to
	do but never got around to doing.

=cut

	my ($self, $sequence) = @_;

=head2 dump_hash()

 Title   : dump_hash()
 Usage   : $o_trim->dump_hash()
 Function: Unimplemented.
 Returns : Nothing.
 Args    : None.
 Notes   : Does nothing.

=head2 trim_singlet($sequence,$quality,$name,$class)

 Title   : trim_singlet($sequence,$quality,$name,$class)
 Usage   : ($r_trim_points,$trimmed_sequence) =
	@{$o_trim->trim_singlet($sequence,$quality,$name,$class)};
 Function: Trim a singlet based on its quality.
 Returns : a reference to an array containing the forward and reverse
	trim points and the trimmed sequence.
 Args    : $sequence : A sequence (SCALAR, please)
	   $quality : A _scalar_ of space-delimited quality values.
	   $name : the name of the sequence
	   $class : The class of the sequence. One of qw(singlet
		singleton doublet pair multiplet)
 Notes   : At the time this was written the bioperl objects SeqWithQuality
	and PrimaryQual did not exist. This is what is with the clumsy
	passing of references and so on. I will rewrite this next time I
	have to work with it. I also wasn't sure whether this function
	should return just the trim points or the points and the sequence.
	I decided that I always wanted both so that's how I implemented
	it.
     - Note that the size of the sliding windows is set during construction of
       the Bio::Tools::Alignment::Trim object.
