This module provides code to work with the standalone version of
BLAST, either blastall or blastpgp, provided by the NCBI.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/

Classes:
LowQualityBlastError     Except that indicates low quality query sequences.
BlastParser              Parses output from blast.
BlastErrorParser         Parses output and tries to diagnose possible errors.
PSIBlastParser           Parses output from psi-blast.
Iterator                 Iterates over a file of blast results.

_Scanner                 Scans output from standalone BLAST.
_BlastConsumer           Consumes output from blast.
_PSIBlastConsumer        Consumes output from psi-blast.
_HeaderConsumer          Consumes header information.
_DescriptionConsumer     Consumes description information.
_AlignmentConsumer       Consumes alignment information.
_HSPConsumer             Consumes hsp information.
_DatabaseReportConsumer  Consumes database report information.
_ParametersConsumer      Consumes parameters information.

Functions:
blastall        Execute blastall.
blastpgp        Execute blastpgp.
rpsblast        Execute rpsblast.

    unable to search with this. This will lead to a badly formatted
