1. Circular sequences

Problem: Aside from GenBank format, virtually none of the common file formats has a mechanism to designate whether a DNA/RNA sequence is circular or linear. 

Workarounds:

2. blreads - Java error messages
In some cases, when blreads completes a task and refreshes the list of files to reflect files created, a Java error message is printed that begins
