[Biojava-l] A software project suggestion

[Andreas Draeger]

Hi Martin Petr,

Something else that is important is to implement an interface data 
structure that allows for more customizable Alignment outputs. At the 
moment our two alignment algorithms (SmithWaterman and NeedlemanWunsch) 
both print each pair-wise alignment in a Blast-like format. However, as 
sometimes it would be nice to have some renderer that lays out the 
output, the alignment should not be printed anymore but passed to the 
renderer, which is an interface and can therefore be implemented in 
several ways. Depending on the implementation, one would receive an HTML 
document or the current Blast-like output or something different. Could 
this be interesting to you?

Cheers
Andreas
