The command-line program CAP (CONTIG ANALYSIS Program (?)) performs
amazingly well, is VERY simple to use and is freeware from:
ftp://ftp.bio.indiana.edu/molbio/align
(I believe it's also incorporated into Don Gibert's Seqpup)
Also, there are 2 other restriction enzyme analysis programs that might be
of interest.
1) Bruce Fristensky's 'intrest' and 'bachrest' programs @
http://home.cc.umanitoba.ca/~psgendb/programs.html
2) 'tacg', my simple (and yet strangely compelling B) command-line prog
for unixy systems @
ftp://mamba.bio.uci.edu/pub/tacg (source code and binaries for
several systems)
Soon coming to a Web Browser near you (far easier than doing separate
GUI's for each platform...), much like the aforementioned Webcutter.
Cheers
Harry
