Math & Science ⇒ multiple Texshade errors in TexLive 2009

[Samonios]

First, Hi to you all
I am using TexLive 2009, and the Texshade package for representation og sequence alignments (files are edited using vim and compiling is done from terminal using the latex command). I get the following errors:
-some texshade commands do not work at all:

Code: Select all

! Undefined control sequence.

ex: \featurestylenamesf
-the rendering of the colors is weird when using the similar shading mode (didn't try others for now):colored background, but the rectangular area just around the letter is always white.
-the solving of the typical memory error does not work:

That is, I change what needs to be changed in the corresponding files, but when i run latex, it is still the same word limit as before...

Hope somenone got a clue ^^

Please provide a complete minimal working example showing such errors.

Sorry for late answer.
Here is the mwe (using the AQPpro.MSF file):

Code: Select all

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[a4paper]{geometry}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{changepage,setspace}
\usepackage{graphicx,booktabs,float,caption, subfigure}
\captionsetup{font=footnotesize,labelfont=bf,singlelinecheck=false}
\captionsetup[table]{position=above,skip=0pt}
\usepackage{amsmath,texshade,amssymb}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\begin{landscape}
\begin{texshade}{AQPpro.MSF}
\shadingmode{similar}
\threshold[80]{50}
\setsize{names}{scriptsize}
\setsize{residues}{scriptsize}
\setsize{numbering}{scriptsize}
\setsize{features}{scriptsize}
\setsize{legend}{scriptsize}
\setends{1}{30..63}
\feature{top}{2}{31..39}{helix}{}
\feature{top}{2}{50..54}{-->}{}
\showfeaturestylename{top}{2nd seq.}
\featurestylenamesf
\hideconsensus
\end{texshade}
\end{landscape}
 \caption{\textbf{Test figure.} Figure generated using the \TeXshade package for latex.}
\end{figure}
\end{document}

Errors (evince mwe.dvi):
alignment not in landscape (I know this is not a texshade error)
colors in the shading boxes
feature arrow not centered
feature name not in scriptsize
texshade logo

colors and textshade logo are fixed when running dvipdf mwe.dvi (?)

Additionnal question: how to get dots instead of the helix when I have gaps in the corresponding sequence?

Thanks in advance.
