Is there a molecular biology suite project?

Hello
I am a post doc at the Dundee University, in Scottland, UK. I mainly do
genetics and I need to be able to see, edit and align .abi files which are
DNA sequence chromatogram files. In our lab, we used to use vector NTI from
invitrogen (
http://www.invitrogen.com/site/us/en/home/LINNEA-Online-Guides/LINNEA-Commu=
nities/Vector-NTI-Community/Vector-NTI.html)
which was free for academy up to the last release... I never liked this
software but it was the one used in the lab, so... I usually use the APE
software (http://www.biology.utah.edu/jorgensen/wayned/ape/) but it can't
align multiple DNA sequence chromatograms, neither edit them... I was
wondering if there was a project that you know of aiming at developping thi=
s
kind of software or even a more complete one, since I think that there is n=
o
really user friendly, complete and free (as in freedom) such software. I
have been talking with my boss and some collegues, and there should be a
possibility to look and hoppefully get some funding for such project that
could involve many different labs (as far I know, most of the labs doing a
bit of molecular biology would be interested, and that means a lot of labs)=
!
Thanks a lot for your time.
Looking forward reading you
