A maintenance release of SeqApp is available which removes the
expiration date. Otherwise there are no bug fixes or new features
since the release of June 1993. My future effort will be directed to
its successor SeqPup, a multi-platform version.
--------------------------

handyman. It includes links to network services and external analysis
programs.

and more
+++ NOTICE: This is an unfinished version of the program. Expect it to
fail in various ways.
You can obtain updates of this release thru anonymous ftp to
ftp.bio.indiana.edu, in folder /molbio/seqapp, as seqapp.hqx. You may
also obtain updates directly thru an internet-connected Mac with SeqApp,
using Gopher to the IUBio archive. Look for a folder called "IUBio
Software+Data/SeqApp, Mac sequence editor". There may be additional
distribution software, data or information in this /molbio/seqapp folder.
See the Readme files in it for details.
Comments, bug reports and suggestions for new features (see below) may be
addressed via e-mail to

History
SeqApp was started Sept. 1990 as MacApp sequence editor/analysis platform on
which analysis programs from other authors, typically command line w/ weak user
interfaces, could be easily incorporated into a useable Mac interface.
11 July 94, version 1.9a169 -- last update to this program, to remove
expiration date. Future work will be in successor SeqPup (multi-platform).
