The output is sent to the screen by default for the user to view, but it can write the results to a file.
The output highlights various differences or similarities between each of the sequences and a reference sequence by setting selected types of matches to a reference sequence to be '.' characters.
The reference sequence can be either the calculated consensus sequence (the default) or it can be one of the set of aligned sequences, specified by either the ordinal number of that sequence in the input file, or by its name.
The output sequences can be displayed in any of:
By using the -show option, all or parts of the sequences can be displayed:
A small table of the way these alignments are displayed illustrates this.
If we have a reference protein sequence of "III" and a sequence aligned to this of "ILW", then we have an identical matching residue, then a similar one (by the default BLOSUM62 matrix), then a dissimilar one.
The different methods of display would give the following:
Reference III All ILw Identical I.. Non-id .lW Similar Il. Dissimilar ..W
Changing the similar matches to lowercase can optionally be disabled by using the option -nosimilarcase.
The displayed sequence can be numbered by placing a ruler with ticks above the sequence.
The width of a line can be set. The width of a margin to the left of the sequences that shows the sequence names can be set.
Specified regions of the sequence can be displayed in uppercase to highlight them.
The output can be formatted for HTML, in which case specified regions of the sequence can be displayed in any valid HTML colours.
The cutoff for setting the case of the consensus is set by the qualifier -setcase. If the number of residues at that position that match the consensus value is greater than this, then the symbol is in uppercase, otherwise the symbol is in lowercase. By default, the value of setcase is set so that if there are more than 50% of residues identical to the consensus at that position, then the consensus is in uppercase.
To put all of the consensus symbols into uppercase or lowercase, make -setcase 0 or very large (try 100000?).

Standard (Mandatory) qualifiers: [-sequence] seqset The sequence alignment to be displayed. [-outfile] outfile Output file name Additional (Optional) qualifiers: -matrix matrix This is the scoring matrix file used when comparing sequences. By default it is the file 'EBLOSUM62' (for proteins) or the file 'EDNAFULL' (for nucleic sequences). These files are found in the 'data' directory of the EMBOSS installation. -refseq string If you give the number in the alignment or the name of a sequence, it will be taken to be the reference sequence. The reference sequence is always show in full and is the one against which all the other sequences are compared. If this is set to 0 then the consensus sequence will be used as the reference sequence. By default the consensus sequence is used as the reference sequence. -[no]bottom boolean If this is true then the reference sequence is displayed at the bottom of the alignment as well as at the top. -show menu What to show -order menu Output order of the sequences -[no]similarcase boolean If this is set True, then when -show is set to 'Similarities' or 'Non-identities' and a residue is similar but not identical to the reference sequence residue, it will be changed to lower-case. If -show is set to 'All' then non-identical, non-similar residues will be changed to lower-case. If this is False then no change to the case of the residues is made on the basis of their similarity to the reference sequence. -[no]consensus boolean If this is true then the consensus line is displayed. Advanced (Unprompted) qualifiers: -uppercase range Regions to put in uppercase. If this is left blank, then the sequence case is left alone. A set of regions is specified by a set of pairs of positions. The positions are integers. They are separated by any non-digit, non-alpha character. Examples of region specifications are: 24-45, 56-78 1:45, 67=99;765..888 1,5,8,10,23,45,57,99 -[no]number boolean If this option is true then a line giving the positions in the alignment is displayed every 10 characters above the alignment. -[no]ruler boolean If this option is true then a ruler line marking every 5th and 10th character in the alignment is displayed. -width integer Width of sequence to display -margin integer This sets the length of the left-hand margin for sequence names. If the margin is set at 0 then no margin and no names are displayed. If the margin is set to a value that is less than the length of a sequence name then the sequence name is displayed truncated to the length of the margin. If the margin is set to -1 then the minimum margin width that will allow all the sequence names to be displayed in full plus a space at the end of the name will automatically be selected. -html boolean Use HTML formatting -highlight range Regions to colour if formatting for HTML. If this is left blank, then the sequence is left alone. A set of regions is specified by a set of pairs of positions. The positions are integers. They are followed by any valid HTML font colour. Examples of region specifications are: 24-45 blue 56-78 orange 1-100 green 120-156 red A file of ranges to colour (one range per line) can be specified as '@filename'. -plurality float Set a cut-off for the % of positive scoring matches below which there is no consensus. The default plurality is taken as 50% of the total weight of all the sequences in the alignment. -setcase float Sets the threshold for the scores of the positive matches above which the consensus is in upper-case and below which the consensus is in lower-case. By default this is set to be half of the (weight-adjusted) number of sequences in the alignment. -identity float Provides the facility of setting the required number of identities at a position for it to give a consensus. Therefore, if this is set to 100% only columns of identities contribute to the consensus. Associated qualifiers: "-sequence" associated qualifiers -sbegin1 integer Start of each sequence to be used -send1 integer End of each sequence to be used -sreverse1 boolean Reverse (if DNA) -sask1 boolean Ask for begin/end/reverse -snucleotide1 boolean Sequence is nucleotide -sprotein1 boolean Sequence is protein -slower1 boolean Make lower case -supper1 boolean Make upper case -sformat1 string Input sequence format -sdbname1 string Database name -sid1 string Entryname -ufo1 string UFO features -fformat1 string Features format -fopenfile1 string Features file name "-outfile" associated qualifiers -odirectory2 string Output directory General qualifiers: -auto boolean Turn off prompts -stdout boolean Write standard output -filter boolean Read standard input, write standard output -options boolean Prompt for standard and additional values -debug boolean Write debug output to program.dbg -verbose boolean Report some/full command line options -help boolean Report command line options. More information on associated and general qualifiers can be found with -help -verbose -warning boolean Report warnings -error boolean Report errors -fatal boolean Report fatal errors -die boolean Report deaths

You can specify a file of ranges to display in uppercase by giving the '-uppercase' qualifier the value '@' followed by the name of the file containing the ranges. (e.g.: '-upper @myfile').
The format of the range file is:
An example range file is:
# this is my set of ranges 12 23 4 5 this is like 12-23, but smaller 67 10348 interesting region
You can specify a file of ranges to highlight in a different colour when outputting in HTML format (using the '-html' qualifier) by giving the '-highlight' qualifier the value '@' followed by the name of the file containing the ranges. (e.g.: '-highlight @myfile').
The format of this file is very similar to the format of the above uppercase range file, except that the text after the start and end positions is used as the HTML colour name. This colour name is used 'as is' when specifying the colour in HTML in a '<font color=xxx>{sequence}</font>' construct, where 'xxx' is the name of the colour.
The standard names of HTML font colours are given in:
An example highlight range file is:
# this is my set of ranges 12 23 red 4 5 darkturquoise 67 10348 #FFE4E1

To see the available EMBOSS data files, run:
% embossdata -showall
To fetch one of the data files (for example 'Exxx.dat') into your current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:
% embossdata -fetch -file Exxx.dat
Users can provide their own data files in their own directories. Project specific files can be put in the current directory, or for tidier directory listings in a subdirectory called ".embossdata". Files for all EMBOSS runs can be put in the user's home directory, or again in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".
The directories are searched in the following order:
