CUSTOM SOFTWARE

The programs provided here were used in the analysis of the Eimeria chromosome 1 sequence.  They are written in LabView (National Instruments) and compiled for MacOSX.  To run, they require the LabView Runtime Engine, which can be downloaded for free from National Instruments.  (Details are provided within the programs).

Double-click the programs to launch them; basic instructions on their use are given on the screen.  The programs stop after they have finished the analysis; either "Quit" if you are finished, or re-run the program (click the white RUN arrow towards the top-left of the screen) to do further analyses.

The programs were originally written for my own use, and are not extensively de-bugged.  Feel free to use and distribute them, but be aware that they are very sensitive to (for example) errors in the input files.  The output files which they create are Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) - these can be opened by many graphics programs (including Adobe Illustrator); the outputs have a minimum of labelling etc - this gives you greater flexibility in manipulating the images thereafter.

If you encounter problems or would like modified (or user-friendlier!) versions of the software, please email Paul H. Dear :  phd@mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk
