A computer program which draws DNA sequences is described. A simple method is used which enables the user to highlight or annotate specific parts of a sequence. The sizes of the characters in the sequence to be drawn are specified by the user. In addition, vertical spacing between lines and horizontal spacing between characters can be specified. Sequences can be prepared and high quality output produced on a plotter in a short period of time, making the program advantageous to use over typing, computer printing, or preparation by a graphics department.
描述了一种绘制DNA序列的计算机程序。该程序采用一种简单的方法,使用户能够突出显示或注释序列的特定部分。用户可以指定要绘制的序列中字符的大小。此外,还可以指定行与行之间的垂直间距以及字符之间的水平间距。可以在短时间内在绘图仪上准备序列并生成高质量的输出,这使得该程序比打字、计算机打印或由图形部门准备更具使用优势。
