Hello molbio.software.netters, I recently ported to my unix box and to a VAX the sequence alignment program called align, found in align.ARC in Don Gilbert's great IuBio archive. Unfortunately, on both machines when I run the program the alignment output for 2 protein sequences contained in 2 input files always consists of both sequences listed one after the other - as though each is part of an alignment to a sequence whose length is the sum of the 2 input sequence lengths. ie ---------SEQUENCE2 SEQUENCE1--------- Did anyone else who might have installed this programme have the same trouble, or have I made some silly error? Thanks, Paul Fisher(micprf@lure.latrobe.edu.au)

I had to fiddle with it a bit. You might want to try my revision, which runs on Iubio VMS Vax.
