be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

The programmer simply calls the (eg) read_reading to create a "Read"
C structure with the data loaded into memory. It has been compiled
and tested on a variety of unix systems, MacOS X and MS Windows.

applications programming interface (API) to the NEXUS file
format of Maddison, et al., 1997 (Syst. Biol. 46:590-621).
NEXUS is a powerful and extensible format designed for use
in evolutionary analysis, including the analysis of molecular
sequence data as well as classical morphological and life-history
data. NEXUS is the input or output format for software such as
PAUP*, MacClade, Mesquite, SIMMAP, MrBayes, Nexplorer, and
so on. This package also contains the demonstration applications
nexplot.pl (plot character data with a tree) and nextool.pl
(allowing programmatic editing, e.g., selecting particular
clades or subsets of data).

-Update libtool and libltdl to 2.2.6a.
-Remove devel/libtool15 and devel/libltdl15.
-Fix ports build with libtool22/libltdl22.
-Bump ports that depend on libltdl22 due to shared library version change.
-Explain what to do update in the UPDATING.
It has been tested with GNOME2, XFCE4, KDE3, KDE4 and other many wm/desktop
and applications in the runtime.

alignments of nucleotide or amino acid sequences. It provides a wide range of
options that were designed to facilitate standard phylogenetic analyses. The
main strengths of PhyML lies in the large number of substitution models coupled
to various options to search the space of phylogenetic tree topologies, going
from very fast and efficient methods to slower but generally more accurate
approaches. It also implements two methods to evaluate branch supports in a
sound statistical framework (the non-parametric bootstrap and the approximate
likelihood ratio test). PhyML was designed to process moderate to large data
sets. In theory, alignments with up to 4,000 sequences 2,000,000 character-long
can analyzed. In practice however, the amount of memory required to process a
data set is proportional of the product of the number of sequences by their
length. Hence, a large number of sequences can only be processed provided that
they are short. Also, PhyML can handle long sequences provided that they are
not numerous. With most standard personal computers, the "comfort zone" for
PhyML generally lies around 3 to 500 sequences less than 2,000 character long.
