Bio::Maxd provides methods for uploading and retrieving
data to/from a maxd (MySQL) database.

"maxd" is a data warehouse and visualization environment for
microarray expression data developed by the Microarray Group at
Manchester Bioinformatics (http://www.bioinf.man.ac.uk/microarray/)

Prerequisites:

     DBI             1.29
     DBD::mysql      2.1
     HTML::Template  2.5

To build:

 perl Makefile.PL
 make
 make test
 make install

or 'perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/path/to/the/directory' to install into
a private directory other than Perl's default one.

NOTES:

1. You may want to set these environment variables for Maxd.pm
  to know where to connect to and where the html templates are:

  setenv MAXD_USERID "userid/password"
  setenv MAXD_HOSTDB "database_host"
  setenv MAXD_TEMPLATES "/path/to/where/templates/are"

2. Maxd uses extra tables for simulating a sequence in mysql
  for the following tables: Hybridisation, Image, Measurement and
  Description. Please run once the script extendMaxD to create and
  initialize tables Hybridisation_Seq, Image_Seq, etc.
