WHAT IS NEW IN CONSED 16.0

454 reads 
    can now be converted to scf files for viewing and editing in Consed

Editing
    All reads can be changed at once to agree with a particular read
    (useful for quickly editing 454 reads to agree with an ABI read)

Assembly View
    sometimes you are interested only in sequence matches
    (the black and orange lines) which indicate a potential join.  The
    other lines (internal matches) clutter up the picture.  Now you can
    show (optionally) just the lines that connect ends of contigs.

Compare Contigs Window
    you used to have to scroll back and
    forth looking for discrepancies.  Now you can now click "next" and
    "previous" to go to each successive discrepancy between contigs.  You
    can also see the # of discrepancies and the discrepancy rate.

Add New Reads
    there is now a navigation file so you can visit 
    the location of each added read.

Tags
    * In the past you could navigate by a tag type (e.g., all
      dataNeeded tags).  Now you can navigate by several tag types,
      and there is a convenient method of selecting a large group
      of tag types.

    * You can search for an oligo tag by the name of the oligo.

    * Once you found an oligo tag, you can search the assembly for any 
      location that matches the bases in that oligo (to find other
      locations matching that sequence--this could happen if the assembly
      has changed)

    * Can easily add a tag to each read at a position (useful for
      polymorphism work)

AutoReport
    can print out all contig-linking forward/reverse read pairs


See README.txt for more information on any of these new features.
