fastachar 0.2.4
A simple program with GUI to compare dna sequences

Fastachar
=========

**Fastachar** is a graphical user interface that allows a simple
comparison of two sets of DNA sequences. A typical working example
is to have a selection of DNA sequences of different, but related
species. These sequences are divided in a set A, which are thought
to be a single taxon (species) and a set B, which is a collection of
different taxa. Using the program, it can be established easily whether:

* the DNA sequences in set A are all identical, and if not, list the
  differences for those positions in the DNA sequences.

* set B has positions in the DNA that are different from those in
  set A,  across **all** species in set B.

**Fastachar** takes as input the alignments stored in a single file of
the fasta format. **Fastachar** is not a tool to align sequences. It is
assumed that the sequences were previously aligned with different algorithms 
(e.g. MUSCLE) and the most reliable alignment was chosen.
