[BioPython] script for clustal alignment format

[Iddo Friedberg]

Hi Scott,

The CVS version of biopython has a module Clustalw. which uses Andrew's
Martel.

I just wanted to play with it today, but got a bit stuck because Martel
needs TextTools, and there is something wrong with the server which
provides it. So I cannot really say how stable the Clustalw module 
is. (But Andrew can! :)

Anyhow:

http://cvs.biopython.org    
for the latest in biopython

http://www.biopython.org/~dalke/Martel/
For Martel

http://starship.python.net/crew/lemburg/mxTextTools.html

for TextTools (seems to be down for now).


: In that same vein, I was hoping that
: someone could point me to a python script that changed clustal W alignment
: formats to some other type of file format such as Fasta. I could probably
: write my own, but I thought if one was available... Maybe all this is
: included in Biopython? If so, I'll work on getting that running.


: 
: Also I wanted to ask if you all are looking for more python code for
: biopython? I have a whole bunch of scripts I use for various tasks that
: might be of interest. What kinds of things are you looking for?
: 

Anything, I think :)))
