PAML/Codeml, PHYLIP programs Neighbor, Seqboot, ProtDist, ProtPars,  
require some file formatting that but might still be criticized as  
not sufficiently difficult to brave the hazards of installing perl  
modules.  Simpler things like MUSCLE, TCOFFEE, BLAST, FASTA/SSEARCH  
might also be good choices.
