- The author of the HyperCard stack "yeaststrains" asked me to post this
- announcement, because many servers have a corrupted version of it:
-
- This Hypercard 2 stack is designed for scientists working with yeast (S.
- cerevisiae) and having more than a few strains. The stack is devised for a
- storage format of 10x10 strains per box. A version designed for boxes of
- 8x8 is also available and can be asked for via e-mail.
-
- Besides some bug-fixes from vers. 1.0, vers. 1.2 is several times faster
- displaying the individual strains. Those of you who have already built a
- strain collection using vers. 1.0 or 1.1 of my stack can e-mail me for an
- updater, which installs the 1.2 improvements without messing up the
- strains already in the collection.
- Attention: A version 1.0 has been posted on a number of servers while
- the accompanying README file described it as version 1.2. You should check
- the version of your collection in the info field in the Finder.
-
- For each strain, mutant alleles are entered by choosing from a list,
- alternative strain names, origin, plasmids and other commentary can be
- stored in addition. Diploid strains can be entered by RmatingS. Strains
- can be extracted quickly by searching for the presence or absence of
- mutant alleles, or for other criteria. Search results can be printed or
- exported as text files.
-
- For German yeast researchers: Eine deutsche Version (nur 10x10-Format)
- kann per e-mail bei mir angefordert werden.

- Note: copies can be obtained from EMBL's ftp server
- (ftp.embl-heidelberg.de) in /ftp/software/mac, or by sending the command
- "get mac_software:yeaststrains.hqx" to netserv@embl-heidelberg.de.
