<p><strong>Sequence Fetcher</strong></p>
-<p>Jalview can retrieve sequences from certain databases using either the
-WSDBFetch service provided by the European Bioinformatics Institute, and, since Jalview 2.4, DAS servers capable of the <em>sequence</em> command (configured in <a href="dassettings.html">DAS settings</a>).</p>
-<img src="seqfetcher.gif" align="center" alt="The Jalview Sequence Fetcher Dialog Box">
-<p>The Sequence Fetcher dialog box can be opened via the "File"
- menu on the main desktop in order to retrieve sequences as a new
- alignment, or opened via the "File" menu of an existing alignment
- to import additional sequences. Please note, there will be a short delay when the sequence fetcher is first opened,
- whilst Jalview compiles the list of available sequence datasources from the
- currently defined DAS server registry.</strong>

+Jalview compiles the list of available sequence datasources from the
+currently defined DAS server registry.</strong></p>
+<p>First, select the database you want to retrieve sequences from.
+Then, enter one or more accession ids (as a semi-colon separated list),
+or press the "Example" button to paste the example accession
+for the currently selected database into the retrieval box. Finally,
+press "OK" to initiate the retrieval.</p>
+<p><em>Fetching Individual PDB Chains</em><br>
+If you are retrieving sequences from the PDB, you can retrieve specific
+chains by appending a colon and the chain id to the PDB id. For example
+:<br>
+<pre> 1GAQ:A</pre>
+<br>
+When retrieving from DAS sequence sources, coordinate range arguments
+can be passed to the server using the standard DAS sequence command
+format (
+<strong>:<start>,<end></strong>
+)
+</p>
+<p><em>Retrieving parts of large sequence records</em><br>
+Some sequence sources allow a range query to be appended to the sequence
+ID - e.g. 'Mito:1,85779'. If you know a source understands this type of
+query format, then you should untick the checkbox for 'replace commas
+with semi-colons' so the range query can be passed to the server
+(otherwise the query will be split up into two 'Mito:1' and '85779'). In
+some cases, a source that supports range queries usually include a range
+qualification in its example query. In this case, Jalview will
+automatically disable the 'replace commas with semi-colons' option.<br>
+<em>Support for range queries was added in Jalview 2.6</em></p>
