A simple script

Getting the title, alignment and first sequence from the current alignFrame

-def alf = Jalview.getAlignFrames();
-print alf[0].getTitle();
-def alignment = alf[0].viewport.alignment;
+def al = Jalview.getCurrentAlignFrame();
+print al.getTitle();
+def alignment = al.viewport.alignment;
 def seq = alignment.getSequenceAt(0);

Copy and paste it into the groovy script console
Load the example Feredoxin project (the one that opens by default when you first launched Jalview)
Select Calculations→Execute Groovy +
Select Calculations→Run Groovy Console Script from the alignment window's menu bar to run the script on the current view.
