BioShell Python library

BioShell 3.0 comes also with Python bindings i.e. BioShell classes can be also used as Python modules. Let’s consider the following C++ program that reads a PDB file and writes a FASTA sequence for every chain:

The same program written in Pyton looks much simpler. It calls nearly the same BioShell C++ objects as the one above, but due to simplicity of Python, the script is a bit shorter:
