+Clustal is a widely used, multiple sequence alignment program. This
+is Clustal Omega, the latest addition to the Clustal family. It
+offers a significant increase in scalability over previous versions,
+allowing hundreds of thousands of sequences to be aligned in only a
+few hours. In addition, the quality of alignments is superior to
+previous versions, as measured by a range of popular benchmarks.
+
+Clustal Omega is currently a command line-only tool, and is only
+suitable for aligning protein sequences, not DNA or RNA.
+
+This requires argtable.
