EMBOSS is a free Open Source software analysis package specially developed for
the needs of the molecular biology (e.g. EMBnet) user community. The software
automatically copes with data in a variety of formats and even allows
transparent retrieval of sequence data from the web. Also, as extensive
libraries are provided with the package, it is a platform to allow other
scientists to develop and release software in true open source spirit. EMBOSS
also integrates a range of currently available packages and tools for sequence
analysis into a seamless whole. EMBOSS breaks the historical trend towards
commercial software packages.
