If there is Version 7 of the GCG program software installed this
contains the program PILEUP which gets you what you might need.
The question is just whether you're trying to align garbage or whether
there's really a piece of common information in it. No computer can help
if the desired homology doesn't exist. Unfourtunately, the computer
won't tell you, but PILEUP will give up if you have more than 2000 Gap
insertions.
