+<P>
+Version 1.4.5 includes the program "alsnum". This is a temporary solution to
+the residue numbering problem. Ultimately, these functions will be included
+as alscript commands.
+<P>
+alsnum creates a set of TEXT commands that can be incorporated into an
+alscript command file to place sequential numbers at any position in the
+alignment. The numbers ignore gaps, so the numbering will correspond to
+the specific sequence position rather than the alignment.
+<P>
+To use the program:
+<P>
+1. Decide where you want the numbers to be placed. For example, you might
+want the numbers above the third sequence in the alignment. If so, make
+an extra sequence space above the third sequence using the ADD_SEQ command.
+<P>
+2. Decide what is the number of the first residue of the sequence to be
+numbered. This will not always be 1 since you may be aligning fragments
+or domains.
+<P>
+3. Decide the numbering interval (e.g. every 10th amino acid).
+<P>
+4. Run the program.
+<P>
+For example, if you want to add numbers according to sequence 37 of a
+block file (junk.blc), calling the first residue of the sequence 12,
+and with an interval of 5, and the numbers are to be placed at the
+location of sequence 3 in the alignment. Type:
+<P>
+alsnum 37 12 5 3 < junk.blc > junk.text
+<P>
+5. Add the resulting TEXT commands from junk.text to your alscript
+command file.
