Genome Browsers / Visualization Tools Compatible With Sanger Reads

Question

[Khader Shameer]

We are validating variants identified from our WES study. I have used Consed for visualizing Sanger reads, but wondering if there is any modern tool/genome browser for visualizing Sanger reads and related file formats ?

IGV, gap5 and samtools tview are known to work. In addition, most BAM based viewers should scale nicely from 100bp reads to >100kb BAC alignment.
