Yes we have the same problem under Unix. We also run srs v4.08.
In the GCG .seq files most of the nucleic sequences are compressed, this
is marked by 2BIT in the title. All the protein seqences + nucleic
sequences which don't use ATGC are not compressed and marked ASCII.
There is no problem with the compressed sequences but well with the non
compressed.
