The input file can be provided via stdin:

% cat testfiles/aln.fasta | av

Exercising some of the options (show sequence numbers and a consensus; show differences with first sequence, restrict to columns 200-280):

% av testfiles/aln.fasta --number-sequences --consensus --range 200,280 --compare-to 59735

The above alignment rendered as colored html (thanks @timholl):

% av testfiles/aln.fasta --number-sequences --consensus --range 200,280 --compare-to 59735 -q --html aln.html

Write a single-page pdf file:

% av testfiles/aln.fasta --pdf test.pdf --quiet --blocks-per-page=5

And do you know about seqmagick? If not, run, don’t walk to https://github.com/fhcrc/seqmagick and check it out, so that you can do this:

% seqmagick convert testfiles/ae_like.sto --output-format=fasta - | av -cx
