EntrezGene parser V1.09 - critical for Perl 5.005_03 users
Added feature over V1.08 includes:
Added parser/indexer for NCBI's ASN.1-formatted
sequence files (like Genbank records).
Updated test, example scripts and documentation
Minor fix on parse_entrez_gene_example.pl
Added code to deal with CCDS xref and Hugo symbol (under
gene properties! unlike before) in parse_entrez_gene_example.pl
Fixed incompatibility with Perl 5.005_03 in codes introduced in V1.07 after Indexer was implemented.

V1.05 (critical update!) still contains all 4 parsers
Version 1.05 is released in response to the new NCBI Entrez Gene download file. NCBI introduced some changes to the file format that broke earlier versions of my parsers.
This version 1.05 works for both the new NCBI format and the previous NCBI format, so it is recommended that you download this version. Note that, however, this version is about 30% slower than version 1.04 due to the changes.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I only fixed my regex-based parser on this new NCBI Entrez Gene file, which means that from this version on, the other parsers in the package will cease to work on the latest NCBI Entrez Gene downloads. Version 1.05 will also be the last version of my packages that contain ALL FOUR parsers I created.
The regex-based parser will be actively maintained in the future versions, however.
