I have a community that likes to refer to positions as offsets, e.g. 100 bases upstream of the beginning of the exon, or 5 bases after the splice site.... They think of it as 34532+2 or 23451-23 (funny, if you hold down the shift key when you type that, you get @#$%!-@#, which is how I feel about it...). Are there any exising Bio::Location classes that would make keeping track of this info easier? g.
