aln2plot(): New function for alignment plotting

Issue #200 new
Barry Grant created an issue

I would like a plot() output equivalent of aln2html() with options for colored text and background. This aln2plot() function would allow coloring by property, conservation scores, etc. as well as residue number annotations and eventually our prototype fancy SSE annotations. Outputting to a PDF would result in useful alignment visualizations.

Printing from seaview, pfat, and boxshade are often not sufficiently flexible.

    I agree. I made an attempt some time ago with the plot.fasta function, but I'm not very satisfied with it. We should definitively revisit this.
