We have recently released a new version of the Staden Package (1997.0). Since then we've found a bug in gap4 for which a fix is now available.
New tapes sent out will have this bug fixed and the release number changed slightly to 1997.0.1.
gap4 will crash if a reading has been highlighted in the template display or contig editor and another database is then opened.
The fixed file, list_proc.tcl, can be obtained from our ftp site:
ftp://ftp.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/pub/staden/common/list_proc.tcl
This file should be placed in the $STADENROOT/lib/gap/ directory.
