Eugen Buehler and I have written a Java trace browser which is
freely available from the software download directory off
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~jparsons
Part of the package can use CORBA to offer client/server trace
browsing across the Internet -as demonstrated at the above
URL. However, if you live behind an old, non-IIOP aware
firewall, you may not be able to try the on-line demos.
The new software is 5 times faster at scrolling, almost flicker-free,
and handles SCF version 3 accurately
See the paper in Genome Research:

Chromatogram Browsing Using JAVA and CORBA., Genome Res., 9, 277-281.
I'm out of email contact for a while now - good luck,
