=head1 NAME

Bio::EnsEMBL::RepeatMaskedSlice - Arbitary Slice of a genome

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  $sa = $db->get_SliceAdaptor();

  $slice =
    $sa->fetch_by_region( 'chromosome', 'X', 1_000_000, 2_000_000 );

  $repeat_masked_slice = $slice->get_repeatmasked_seq();

  # get repeat masked sequence:
  my $dna = $repeat_masked_slice->seq();
  $dna = $repeat_masked_slice->subseq( 1, 1000 );

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a specialised Bio::EnsEMBL::Slice class that is used to retrieve
repeat masked genomic sequence rather than normal genomic sequence.

# The BLOCK_PWR is the lob_bin of the chunksize where you want your repeat features
# to be retreived. This will create repeat feature retrieval calls that are likely 
# to be on the same slice and hopefully create cache hits and less database traffic

=head2 new

  Arg [-REPEAT_MASK] : The logic name of the repeats to be used for masking.
                      If not provided, all repeats in the database are used.
  Arg [...]  : Named superclass arguments. See B<Bio::EnsEMBL::Slice>.
  Example    : my $slice = Bio::EnsEMBL::RepeatMaskedSlice->new
                  (-START  => $start,

  Description: Creates a Slice which behaves exactly as a normal slice but
               that returns repeat masked sequence from the seq method.

=head2 not_default_masking_cases

  Arg [1]    : hash reference $not_default_masking_cases (optional, default is {})
               The values are 0 or 1 for hard and soft masking respectively
               The keys of the hash should be of 2 forms
               "repeat_class_" . $repeat_consensus->repeat_class,
                e.g. "repeat_class_SINE/MIR"
               "repeat_name_" . $repeat_consensus->name
                e.g. "repeat_name_MIR"
               depending on which base you want to apply the not default masking either 
               the repeat_class or repeat_name. Both can be specified in the same hash
               at the same time, but in that case, repeat_name setting has priority over 
               repeat_class. For example, you may have hard masking as default, and 
               you may want soft masking of all repeat_class SINE/MIR,
               but repeat_name AluSp (which are also from repeat_class SINE/MIR)
  Example    : $rm_slice->not_default_masking_cases({"repeat_class_SINE/MIR" => 1,
                                                     "repeat_name_AluSp" => 0});
  Description: Getter/Setter which is used to escape some repeat class or name from the default 
               masking in place.
