[gt-users] extending python bindings

[Brent Pedersen]

hi,
are there plans to expand the bindings to provide more granular access
to the library, and or will you accept patches that do so?

i'd like to be able to create features on the fly and manipulate and
draw them, kinda like this example in c:
http://github.com/gordon/genometools/tree/master/src%2Fexamples%2Fsketch_constructed.c

i had a quick go at adding a GTFeatureNode that can be constructed
from start, stop, strand, seqid. i've attached
the patch and pasted here:
http://pastebin.ca/raw/1261903

i'm not sure how to handle the strand enum with ctypes. and i'm not
sure of the relation between the _api.h files and
the corresponding .h files...
any help on that or comments on the code are welcome.

thanks,
-brent
