Hi,
in the announcement-thread of the new EMBOSS version 6.1.0. was a
request for a program allowing complete global alignments including
penalties for end gaps by Daniel Barker. (

The suggestion was to add a command line parameter to the needle program
to enable/disable the penalties.
Are there any news on this topic? I have to perform a lot of pairwise
global alignments (without free end gaps) and either I have to program
my own software or use existing software. Needle owns all needed
features except the "only free end behavior". So I am really interested
in getting a version of needle able to help me ;)
Thanks for the great EMBOSS package.
Regards,
Frank
