OPTIONS

-in <m|a> : input file is a distance matrix in phylip format (m)

or an alignment in stockholm format* (a, default)

-out <m|t> : output is a distance matrix in phylip format (m) or

a tree in New Hampshire format

Advanced options : -upgma : Use the UPGMA method to construct the tree

(ignored for distance matrix outputs)

-kimura : Use the kimura translation for pairwise distances

(ignored for distance matrix inputs)

-boot <n> : Calcuate bootstrap values with n iterations

(ignored for distance matrix outputs)

-v : print version and exit

*Use sreformat, part of the HMMer package to convert your alignment to Stockholm format
