FASTML (VERSION 2.02)

FASTML is a program for computing the ancestral amino-acid sequences of a phylogenetic tree.
Current version is from 22.12.2011.
For support and questions please email me: talp@post.tau.ac.il

The program is now available as a web server at: http://fastml.tau.ac.il
Source code, help on usage and executables for Windows can also be found there.

If there are problems with the compilations (occasionally, with old version of g++) - please email me and I'll try to help. To modify the code, or use parts of it for other purposes, permission is requested. Please contact Tal Pupko at talp@post.tau.ac.il
