[ensembl-dev] searchin on ensembl with perl API

[Carnë Draug]

Hi

I can't find on the tutorials any info on how to something that I hope
will be very simple.

On the website, I can enter a query term and I get a list of gene and
transcripts ids. I'd like to make that search with the perl API.
However, I can't find any information on to do it on the tutorials.

Also couldn't find anything when searching for 'query' on the list of
the core API methods or in the mailing list (by the way, the ensembl
mailing list archive is not searchable, I had to rely on google. It
would probably be nice to do that).

Could someone show me how to do that or point to the right package or
documentation?

Thanks in advance,
Carnë Draug
