Overview
This manual page documents briefly the seaview, command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has online documentation, see below.
seaview is a graphical multiple sequence alignment editor. SeaView is able to read various alignment formats (MSF, CLUSTAL, FASTA, PHYLIP, MASE, NEXUS). It allows one to manually edit the alignment, and also to run DOT-PLOT or CLUSTAL programs to locally improve the alignment.
Options
-
-save <format_name> -
format_name, either mase, clustal, phylip, msf, fasta, or nexus, sets the default file format for saving operations
-
-fast -
sequences will be displayed faster but less smoothly
-
-inverted -
residues will appear as black letters on a colored background
Argument
"filename" is an optional alignment file to be loaded. The expected format for this file is that of the default format for saving operations.
