[Pipet Devel] plasmid drawing

[J.W. Bizzaro]

Here is a nice example of a plasmid drawing program:

pDRAW runs on MICROS~1.

The Loci way of doing this would be to have a generic plasmid shape in an OpenGL
"materials library".  This could then be called upon by any instrument/plug-in. 
Annotation points would be all around the plasmid shape, and they can be marked
on the fly.

This is all high-level stuff.  If a plasmid (or phylogenetic tree, etc.) is to
be drawn by a hundred different plug-ins, why have it generated from scratch?


Cheers,
Jeff
