The CIPRES2 and NGBW web sites are built on the "Workbench Framework". The framework presents a graphical user interface for command line programs, based on xml files that describe the programs' options. The xml schema we use is derived from pise/mobyle.

We are able to host programs that run on linux. They must be controlled entirely by command line options and/or parameter files. Programs that issue text prompts for user input and then run to completion without further user interaction (like many of the programs in the Phylip suite) are also supported.

You can use this web site to create the xml file that describes your program. Once that's working, we'll also need you to give us an archive (tar, zip, etc) containing the source code and a makefile, configure script, or whatever else is needed to compile the program on linux.
