There is nothing more that a poor command-line interface, as far
as I can understand both paper and web pages. Also, something I really
dislike is (quoting http://www.gcg.com/products/seqweb_details.html )
***
Concentrate on the key parameters.
Each program in SeqWeb presents a condensed list of program parameters,
each with a default answer already assigned (except for the input file).
There's no need to memorize command-line syntax.
***
That means that a luser that start with seqweb and become an
advanced user will have to go back to the command-line to have access
to specific parameters, not listed on the web page...
Typically the OML syndrom...
