Tregwiki:Multi-sequence visualization of features

There is really no good tool for this yet that I know of. I've tried some but never really found what I wanted, two or more sequences with features plotted on them or display something like a synteny-plot:

• • Alfresco
  • ACT
  • self-written tools that operate in text-mode (ugly, e.g. emboss' prettyseq)
  • Apollo (also in synteny mode)
  • Vector NTI in aligment mode ("Show all features")
  • My MUMU-tools (export to svg)
  • gff2ps (only one sequence?)
  • Multipipmaker and Vista, when in doubt use multipipmaker, Vista comes almost without any documentation and uses a strange "plotfile" format
  • feature_draw from bioperl (though only for one sequence at a time, very configurable)
  • Argo whole genome viewer/editor, with comparative view
