A. Our website -- http://www.lifeformulae.com, has been updated with the files required to modify the ncbi_c--Mar_17 version of the NCBI Toolbox blastall application to support the local BLAST alignment graphical view and extended options that include output of the BlastOutput ASN.1 data structure in binary or text. The blastall_diff.txt file is the patch file that contains the modifications to the Toolbox code. The HOW_TO.txt file provides instructions on how to apply the patch and compile the Toolbox. blastall will produce the graphical view with either the old or the new BLAST engine. You must use the blastall "-T T" (HTML option) to activate the graphical overview. For the BlastOutput format option, "-m 12" will create an ASN.1 text file, while "-m 13" will create an ASN.1 binary file.
