Hi Bo,

A starting point for formatted output with conservation symbols is already 
implemented for pairwise alignments.  You can try it out by removing one of the 
protein ID's on line 16 of the cookbook code and replacing line 30 with: 
System.out.println(profile.toString(Profile.StringFormat.CLUSTALW));

The code that would need updating for multiple alignments is in 
SimpleProfile.printConservation and around the call to it in the toString helper 
method.
