When studying multiple alignments of genomic sequences one frequently aims to locate and count regions which satisfy a set of constraints. These regions may be putatively functional, but researchers may also be interested in quantifying the frequency of occurrences of certain patterns.We have developed a program that applies simple formulas and pattern specifications to multiple alignments, reporting the positions and counts of conforming regions. As an example, we have navigated a 15-species alignment of the CAV2-CAV1 region and outlined some findings regarding PPARgamma binding sites.Our software and the accompanying documentation can be obtained at no charge by contacting the authors.
