as a matter of fact, i did write exactly that program nine years ago -
http://xray.bmc.uu.se/usf/seqman_man.html :-) - not quite a 'ccp4 for
bioinformatics' but indeed a simple sequence-homolog of moleman
it's very limited, though. i mostly use it for generating exam questions for
my bioinformatics courses. many of the ideas (and then some) i had for a suite
of sequence/structure-oriented programs (initially called SEQSYST but
subsequently renamed to SBIN - http://xray.bmc.uu.se/usf/sbin.html) were later
implemented in a much better program called indonesia (see manual at
http://xray.bmc.uu.se/dennis/ - this program used to be called FarOut in an
earlier incarnation) by dennis madsen, patrik johansson, mark harris, susan
arent, and others. since these are all smart kids who know java that program
even has a nice gooey. it is maintained by dennis ([log in to unmask])
