(with one small bugfix in bgen/bgen/scantools.py)
This replaces string module functions with string methods
for the stuff in the Tools directory. Several uses of
string.letters etc. are still remaining.
"""
the NEWS file of Python 1.5.2a2 inspired me to look at
Tools/scripts/untabify.py. I wonder why it accepts a -t argument
but ignores it. The following patch tries to make it somewhat useful
(i.e., to override the tabsize=8 setting). Is that agreeable?
