[Bioperl-l] Displaying an alignment using Bio::Graphics

[Lincoln Stein]

There's a colorized multiple alignment display in the GBrowse package 
(http://www.mod.org).  It's in the module 
Bio::Graphics::Browser::PadAlignment.

There's also a very handy module called Bio::Graphics::Browser::Markup 
that can be used to add HTML text style strings (colors, boldface, 
italics and various combinations) to arbitrary DNA and protein 
sequences.  It takes care of all the line-wrapping and collisions 
among the tags.  You just need to provide the base pair range and a 
symbolic style name.
