I often encounter the situation where I want to use only part of a
sequence alignment as a phylip infile. (for example to exclude all
postions where there is a gap in any of the sequences or where the
alignment appears uncertain). Until recently we had an editor which
could remove columns or blocks of columns from selected lines of the
alignment to generate the input file. Sadly it was very obsolete and the
only machine which could run it has died. Does anyone know of an editor
which can do this? We are mainly using Macs, but also have access to PCs
and UNIX( via telnet).
Many thanks
Jeremy
