      Description

      When reading a gzipped file in jalview.io.FileParse.parse(Object, DataSourceType) occurs in JalviewJS, the contents of the file are obtained as a byte array. Doing the obvious thing to check whether this is a GzipStream (e.g. doing

            if (bytes != null)
            {
              // this will be from JavaScript
              inFile = file;
              // dataIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes))); // this line changed ...
              try
              {
                dataIn = checkForGzipStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes)); // ... to this (requires try)
              } catch (Exception e)
              {
                e.printStackTrace();
              }
              dataName = fileStr;
            }

      )
      results in the following error in JalviewJS:

      TypeError: this.$in.read$BA$I$I is not a function

      Error whilst identifying ./test2.fa.gz

      jalview.io.FileFormatException: Failed to read data from source: UNINITIALISED SOURCE

      This appears to occur when creating the ByteArrayInputStream from the byte array. Unfortunately this needs to be done to create a GZIPInputStream used to gunzip the file contents.

      Likely to be fixed by SwingJS implementing this.$in.read$BA$I$I which I think is BufferedReader.read(.,.,.)
