DGAPSEQ
DGAPSEQ removes gap characters from sequences. The prgram reads in one or more sequences and writes them out again minus any gap characters. In effect it removes gaps from aligned sequences. In fact, if does more than just this as it removes ANY non-alphabetic character from the input sequence, so as well as removing the gap-characters, it will remove such things as the '*' in protein sequences that indicates the position of a 'translated' STOP codon. This is an EMBOSS program.
