seqed?

[Daniel Schlieper]

Hello,

I really like emboss, and I use it as much as I can. In fact, the only
reason to start a GCG session is seqed. I couldn't find anything like it
in emboss. tfm newseq writes: "You wouldn't want to type a long sequence
in by hand, anyway, would you?" Maybe I am old fashioned, but yes, I do.
As I can type quickly, 1000 nt are not a problem, and sometimes the only
way to get the sequence file.

But this can only be done with a program that not only allows to type in
nucleotides, but also to check them, to look for given sequences
and so on. It will be even more helpfulll if it ignores blanks, carriage
returns and numbers (for cut-and-paste). 

So I would be glad if you please add a seqed clone to the emboss suite.

Best regards, Daniel
