Forgive me if this has been hashed out before, but I'm looking for 
some free- or share-ware for the Mac (IIsi, in this case) that will 
take input from a sonic (SAC-type) digitizer for reading sequencing 
gels and will preferably allow at least some rudimentary editing as it 
goes.  While I'd rather not hack any code, I'm willing to if the source 
code is available for a PC.
   The only programs of which I'm aware of that will do this at 
present are the prohibitively expensive DNASTAR and 
MacVector.programs, and while the next version of DNA Strider 
*might* support it, the need is immediate.
   Any help appreciated.  Please respond to me at the below address 
and I'll summarize responses.
