Dear all, I am making a list of software of special relevance to molecular and computational biology, and it appears that there are only two free viewers for sequence traces, abiview and trev.
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianSequenceAnalysis Abiview is part of the emboss package, and an unofficial debian package is available. Unfortunately its GUI is very limited. On the other hand, trev, the viewer of the Staden package, has a better GUI, but is not packaged yet. Staden is something very big, and packaging it may not be straigtforward. On the other hand, I think that its presence in Debian would be very rewarding. Definitely, packaging Staden does not look like something for beginners. But as a molecular biologist, I can help with testing the packages with some real-life data of mine. I will crosspost this mail on debian-science as well, so that non-biologist debian developpers can hear the call for packaging. (would filling a formal RFP make sense ?) I think that it is better to reply on debian-med, as it is there where the thread was started. Best regards, -- Charles -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
