Function
</H2>
Reads ABI file and display the trace
<H2>
Description
</H2>
<b>abiview</b> reads in an ABI sequence trace file and graphically
displays the results.
<p>
The data for each nucleotide is plotted and the assigned nucleotide (G,
A, T, C or N) in the ABI file is overlayed on the graphs.
<p>
It also writes out the sequence to an output sequence file.
<H2>
Usage

The horizontal scale of the output image labelled 'Residue Position' is
only a very approximate indication of the spacing of residues in the
image. The real residue spacing is variable, as it relies on the speed
with which the oligo-nucleotides are eluted in the ABI sequencer. Do
not be surprised to see the nucleotide signals spaced at a much greater
distance than the horizontal scale might suggest.
