NAME
seaview - a multiplatform, graphical user interface for multiple
sequence alignment and molecular phylogeny.
SYNOPSIS
seaview [filename]
DESCRIPTION
seaview is the program that starts the SeaView GUI.
SeaView is a graphical interface for multiple sequence alignment and
molecular phylogeny. It is able to read various alignment formats (MSF,
CLUSTAL, FASTA, PHYLIP, MASE, NEXUS) and the Newick tree format, and
allows one to manually edit the alignment, to run DOT-PLOT, CLUSTAL or
MUSCLE programs to locally improve the alignment, and also to compute,
draw and edit phylogenetic trees.
If started from the command line with filename as an argument, seaview
will open the alignment or tree stored in filename and display/draw it
on screen. Filename can be in any of the mase, clustal, phylip, msf,
fasta, or nexus alignment formats or in the Newick tree format.
OPTIONS
-fast
Suppresses double buffering for display. This should only
accelerate display on very slow systems.
-fontsize n
Sets the font size to n.
FILES
$HOME/.seaviewrc holds the user´s configuration for SeaView.
SEE ALSO
The program is fully documented online. Press the "help" button in the
main window. On Debian systems, the text template for SeaView´s help
can be found in /usr/share/doc/seaview/seaview.html.
Two multiple alignment programs can be called from whithin SeaView:
muscle(1) and clustalw(1).
