Sequence align. randomizations

[Richard P Grant]

Hi Steve,

You want Bill Pearson's rss program.

Can't remember where to get it, but the usual biol places are a good place
to look.

Take a peek at 
http://worf.molbiol.ox.ac.uk/~rgrant/thesis/4structurestudies.html

to see how I used it.  I did 1,000 randomizations - is this sufficient?
:-)

hth,
Richard
