.SH NAME
ktGetLCA \- explore hierarchical metagenomic data with zoomable pie charts
.SH DESCRIPTION
Description:
.IP
Computes the lowest common ancestor for accessions or taxonomy IDs (as
arguments or from <stdin>). If an input is a number, it is assumed to be a
taxonomy ID; otherwise it will be considered an accession or sequence ID
containing an accession in the fourth field of pipe notation (e.g.
"gi|12345|xx|ABC123.1|", ignoring fasta/fastq tag markers [>,@]). If using
<stdin>, the LCA can be computed for the first fields of all input lines
(default), or per input line, separated by whitespace (see \fB\-s\fR).
.PP
Usage:
.IP
ktGetLCA [options] [acc/tax_ID ...] [< acc/taxID_list] > LCA
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-s\fR
Streaming mode. Each line is expected to be a whitespace\-separated list
of inputs for a single lowest common ancestor computation. Taxonomy will
be preloaded, allowing for faster computation after a small upfront time.
