How do I add colour to an alignment?
Program name: prettyplot
Notes: You can use prettyplot to create a coloured version of your alignment (a 'png' file) The images generated are
suitable for insertion into a powerpoint presentation (right-click the image / copy / paste directly into the presentation).
The residues may be coloured by conservation (identities and/or similarities), or by chemical properties.
