Unfortunately, this difference reflects some historical differences in the lalign output structure compared with the fasta searching programs. Basically, the function that produces the text that begins "The best scores are:" is used to produce --m 8 and -m 9 output, and that function is not used by lalign.

I agree that it is inconvenient, and plan to address the problem in an upcoming release.

Sorry,

Bill Pearson
