18DESCRIPTION  This module allows handling and modification of 'alignments'
19             (see LINK{glossary.hlp}).
20
21                Select an alignment from the 'Alignments' subwindow
22
23                Define the type of sequences (DNA, RNA, protein):
24
25                        Press the <Type of Sequences> button and choose from the
26                        displayed menu.
27
28                Set protection:
29
30                        Press the <Default Write Protection> button and choose
31                        from the displayed menu.
32
33                Press the respective buttons to perform further functions:
34
35                      DELETE:     Delete an alignment and its sequence data
36                      RENAME:     Rename an alignment
37                      CREATE:     Create a new alignment (no data)
38                      COPY:       Copy an alignment
39                      CHECK LEN:  Find the longest sequence and set the
40                                  'Maximum Seq. Length' displayed in the
41                                  corresponding subwindow
42                      FORMAT:     Append '.' to sequences up to 'Maximum Seq.
43                                  Length'.
44
45                Auto format: Whether to ask, format or skip w/o asking
46                             whenever an unformatted alignment is detected.
47
48NOTES           Some functions require setting a protection level equal to or
49                higher than that of the 'alignment'.
50
51                There is one special alignment called "ali_genom" used for full
52                genome sequences. You can't format that alignment because it is
53                necessary to ensure that it's alignment positions match those
54                used in the gene entries. For the same reason you should never
55                ever put any gap into that alignment.
56
57EXAMPLES        None
58
59WARNINGS        Be careful when deleting or changing the name of an alignment
60                while other programs are using it (eg. parsimony programs ..)

62BUGS            No bugs known
