+AmplifX: Manage, test and design your primers for PCR.
+
+The main purpose of AmplifX is to seek in a collection of primers,
+such as any molecular biologist get in his refrigerators, those which
+can be use to amplify a fragment into a target sequence, for example,
+and particularly, to design strategies to screen recombinant clones by
+PCR. Main features:
+
+Manage your primers
+- Import or easily create primer lists
+- Name,comment, sort primers
+- Share simply primer lists (automatic lockout in read only mode of
+  files yet opened by an other user)
+- Automatic calculation of quality score (TM [Santa-Lucia method],
+  length, GC%, autodimer, complexity, etc.)
+- Works with degenerate sequences
+
+Test your primers
+- Localise your primers on target sequences (main file formats
+  supported and "intelligent" copy-paste)
+- Prediction of amplified sequences
+- Interactive graphic map
+- Pertinent informations on matches and amplicons (TM, size, predicted
+  dimers, etc.)
+
+Design your primers
+- Simple and intuitive interface to design new primers for amplifying
+  a fragment choosing the amplicon size and/or the position
+- Many of design options
+
+NOTE:
+This is just repackaging of the ready binary for x86 and will not run
+on x86_64. It will probably work fine on a Slackware multilib box.
