The JAM format allows to adapt the guide to any individual site
in a few minutes. All you need is to modify a few files and process these
in the 'jam' processor, which is an application known to run on many
opreating systems. The modifications are so easy that they can be made even
by the end user.
What you get is what you deserve !
The JAM version of the guide can be used to produce RTF, LaTeX, or HTML
files. If you want to add site-specific information or if you want to
modify the guide, you must download the sourcefiles and the JAM source.
JAM uses the NCBI VIBRANT Toolkit (Kahns et al., NCBI)
which is required to compile and link the GUI version of the JAM processor.
JAM compiles either with or without GUI on many platforms we use
here (DEC VMS/OSF1, IRIX, Mac, Dos, Windows).
