Hello,
There's a little mistake on the Biopython clustalw.py doc:
Take a look here (blank lines removed):
# Clustalw modules
"""Clustalw.py
A set of classes to interact with the multiple alignment command
line program Clustalw (which is the command line version of the current
graphical Clustalx aligment program).
This requires Clustalx1.8.1 available from:
ftp://ftp-igbmc.u-strasbg.fr/pub/ClustalX/.
Older versions may work, but haven't been tested yet.
It says that interact with "clustaw" but then it states that requires
"Clustalx". But the command line generated by this module calls to
clustalw, NOT clustalx.
And ClustalX doesn't include clustalW binary file, so the requiered
program (clustalw) is NOT on the stated FTP dir.
So description should read something like this:
# Clustalw modules
"""Clustalw.py
A set of classes to interact with the multiple alignment command
line program Clustalw (which is the command line version of the current
graphical Clustalx aligment program).
This requires Clustalw1.8.1 available from:
ftp://ftp-igbmc.u-strasbg.fr/pub/ClustalW/.
Older versions may work, but haven't been tested yet.
