clustalw2 output format

Hey, I'm using clustalw to align protein sequences and I'm having an output like this:

CLUSTAL 2.1 multiple sequence alignment

Is there an option to create output so each protein would be on just one line i.e. without line break?

There is one of the output file in Clustal, that can be imported as a clustal file (obvious, that is, do not use the open function) into a window program named GeneDoc that will allow you to do what you want and many more things

i kinda can't afford an extra step like one more program

i'll be creating a lot of alignments

It's your choice. I am experienced in importing the clustal results into GeneDoc, and I love it.

Give a try..
