There is a freeware program available from NCBI called Macaw
(ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/macaw/) that runs under Windows (3.1, 95 and NT)
as well as Mac. This program allows you to do multiple amino acid or
nucleotide sequence alignments. It can read in FASTA format files from Entrez
(http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Entrez/). I've used the program for a while now
and like it. It does what I need to do and the price can't be beat.
