=head1 NAME

Bio::Coordinate::Utils - Additional methods to create Bio::Coordinate objects

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Bio::Coordinate::Utils;
    # get a Bio::Align::AlignI compliant object, $aln, somehow
    # it could be a Bio::SimpleAlign

    $mapper = Bio::Coordinate::Utils->from_align($aln, 1);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class is a holder of methods that work on or create
Bio::Coordinate::MapperI- compliant objects. . These methods are not
part of the Bio::Coordinate::MapperI interface and should in general
not be essential to the primary function of sequence objects. If you
are thinking of adding essential functions, it might be better to
create your own sequence class.  See L<Bio::PrimarySeqI>,
L<Bio::PrimarySeq>, and L<Bio::Seq> for more.

=head2 from_align

 Title   : from_align
 Usage   : $mapper = Bio::Coordinate::Utils->from_align($aln, 1);
 Function:
           Create a mapper out of an alignment.
           The mapper will return a value only when both ends of
           the input range find a match.

           Note: This implementation works only on pairwise alignments
           and is not yet well tested!

 Returns : A Bio::Coordinate::MapperI
 Args    : Bio::Align::AlignI object
           Id for the reference sequence, optional
