  • reintegrates 'help' into 'trunk'
    • tweak arb documentation:
      • automatically link
        • ticket references to arb bug tracker (only affects html version).
        • found URLs.
      • page titles
        • warn about long titles.
        • introduce SUBTITLEs (automatically triggered by multi-line titles in source files).
        • increase allowed length (limited by subwindow width).
      • cleanup header sections in all helpfiles.
      • fix and/or update several help files.
      • document syntax of help sources.
      • build issues:
        • when xml validation fails, next build no longer uses invalid xml ⇒ keeps failing.
        • remove output files on error (including files below ARBHOME/lib).
        • pipe output through logs to ensure proper wrapping in Entering/Leaving lines.
    • moves Tree admin + NDS menu entries to top of menu
  • adds: log:branches/help@18783:19531
  • Property svn:eol-style set to native
  • Property svn:keywords set to Author Date Id Revision

13TITLE           What is an Alignment?
14
15DESCRIPTION     Different alignments assigned to the same species (eg. sequences
16                of different genes) can be stored in one database.
17                The name of the currently accessible alignment (ali_*) is shown
18                in the 3rd broad rectangular button in the top area of the
19                ARB_NT window.
20
21                The sequences themselves are not stored in the 'ali_*' field of
22                a species, but in the subfield 'data' of 'ali_*'
23                'ali_*' is a container field: it holds no data
24                except other data fields (like a directory in a file system).
25
26NOTE            There is a special alignment called 'ali_genom' which is used
27                for full genome databases.
28                It's called an alignment because it fits into our database structure,
29                but it should NOT contain any gaps.
