+<p><strong>What's new</strong> </p>\r
<p>If you can read this then you'll already have seen some of the recent changes\r
made to Jalview.<br>\r
-</p>\r
+ Jalview takes advantage of some of the more recent user interface developments\r
+ in the Java programming language. For instance Jalview is now a multi windowed\r
+ application, this keeps all your Jalview windows neatly together in one main\r
+ application window. </p>\r
+<p>If you were familiar with the original Jalview, here is a list of important\r
+ features you should know about the current development:</p>\r
+<ul>\r
+ <li>Editing sequences is no longer the default when mouse clicking the alignment.\r
+ Instead, mouse clicking on the alignment will create a "selection region"\r
+ which may be full sequences or groups of residues.</li>\r
+ <li>To edit a sequence, the "Shift" key must be held down</li>\r
+ <li>To edit groups, either the "Alt" key or the "Control"\r
+ key must be held down.</li>\r
+ <li>Colours maybe applied to the background, ie the whole alignment, or to selected\r
+ regions. If the tickbox "Apply colour to all groups" is ticked (this\r
+ is the defualt), then the colour will be applied to all groups.</li>\r
+ <li>Use the right mouse button (apple and click on the mac) to define a selected\r
+ region on the alignment as a new group. </li>\r
+ <li>Conservation is automatically updated whenever the alignment is edited</li>\r
+ <li>There is no "quick draw" option</li>\r
+ <li>Edits can be undone! (and redone)</li>\r
+</ul>\r
