    -col[space]=#         column space within sequence line on output
    -gap[count]           count gap chars in sequence numbers
    -nameleft, -nameright[=#]   name on left/right side [=max width]
    -nametop              name at top/bottom

    -inter[line=#]        blank line(s) between sequence blocks

This program requires a Java runtime (jre) program, version 1.1.x 
The leading '-' on option is optional if '=' is present.  All non-options
(no leading '-' or embedded '=') are used as input file names.
These options and call format are compatible with the classic readseq (v.1992)
with exception of no -reverse option.

  Graphic interface to Readseq (Java swing)
  Usage:
    java -cp readseq.jar iubio.readseq.app (java version 1.2)
    jre -cp readseq.jar:/path/to/swingall.jar iubio.readseq.app (java version 1.1.x)
  Readseq version 2.0.10 (27 May 2000)

  Java Foundation Classes (Swing) are required for this interface
  This is available for Java versions 1.1.7 and newer at
