[Liam Elbourne]

I think it is 10 characters (sequence starts at character 11), not that two characters is worth quibbling about, I just map the original names to hex numbers (which I think is likely to cover the number of sequences one can realistically align…), and then swap out the hex codes when I’ve finished with the alignment/tree etc, for what that is worth…
