description

Spreadsheets have several functions and facilities that make them good candidates to be used as multiple sequence editors. They can be easily programmed (even by non-programmers) with macros that allow them to fit the needs of the user, free of the restrictions that programs written by other people have. Here I present a sheet containing a set of macros written for Lotus 1-2-3
