Hi Lars,

Thank you for letting alv as an open source. I definitely have enjoyed it and have used to visualize many alignments especially as alv -k -l <alignment> | less -RS. However, sometimes when I spot problems in my alignment I wish I could edit it "in situ". Like using a terminal editor instead of less while viewing with alv

If you can suggest me anything on this regard I would really appreciate.

Cheers, Camilo.

Hi, I am glad you enjoy alv! I turn to Jalview myself when I need the editing functionality, but agree that being able to do it in the console would be preferable. Unfortunately, I don't have the time or resources (at this time) to implement that.
