FinchTV - A Brilliant Trace Viewer
-Geospiza's FinchTV is the popular way to view DNA sequence traces.
-FinchTV started as the only chromatogram viewer that can display an
-entire trace in a scalable multi-pane view. And it leads the way with
-raw data views, BLAST searching and the ability to reverse complement
-sequences and traces.
+FinchTV developed by Geospiza (acquired later by PerkinELmer) is the
+popular way to view DNA sequence traces. FinchTV started as the only
+chromatogram viewer that can display an entire trace in a scalable
+multi-pane view. And it leads the way with raw data views, BLAST
+searching and the ability to reverse complement sequences and traces.
This is just repackaging of the ready i386 binary. It WILL work on a
stock Slackware64 as well (no multilib needed).
NOTE!
-This program is free, but you should REGISTER in order to get it.
-This means you have to use a web browser to download the "source"
-tarball.
+FinchTV has entered the End of Life phase, effective December 6, 2016
+and PerkinElmer will no longer provide support for FinchTV. The Linux
+version is, in fact, over 10 years old. However, it offers a statically
+linked executable that just works. The tarball, formerly provided by
+upstream, is now hosted by the SlackBuild maintainer.
