This library is a collection of Bioinformatics-related helper functions that I have created in the course of writing bioinformatics tools.

If I find that I want to reuse a bit of code in multiple projects, the code usually ends up in this helper library

The quickest way to get started using the helperlibs is to dump the helperlibs folder in the top level directory for your project.

Of course you can also install it in your Python path, by using pip install helperlibs for the latest stable release or pip install git+git://github.com/kblin/bioinf-helperlibs.git for the lastest code from git.
