Description
Currently, PDB files passed to the applet for associating with aligned sequences are not passed on to the application. Two things need to be fixed for this to happen:
1. A new command line argument is needed so specific PDB files can be loaded onto the alignment being imported in to the application
2. The launchApp servlet needs extending to parse PDBfile parameters passed to it.
Minor issues:
If a PDB file is embedded in the applet's classpath then the jalview application will have to know which jar contains the pdb file so it can attempt to retrieve it. This means the servlet will also have to pass on the Jars on the classpath - either as explicit resource locations, or as a generic list of Jars that the application should try to search.
