Installation

tacl is available on PyPI and so can be installed (along with its Python dependencies) using pip. If problems occur, see https://github.com/ajenhl/tacl/wiki/Installation for alternative instructions.

Requirements

• Python 3 (minimum version 3.5)

• lxml

• pandas

• SQLite3

• biopython

• Jinja2

• colorlog

On Windows, Python is packaged with the SQLite3 DLL, so the latter need not be installed separately.

lxml is used in generating suitable text files from XML source documents (such as those provided by CBETA).

pandas is used to manipulate results.

biopython is used in creating side by side display of aligned text matches.
