It is based on a Markov chain implementation, which uses genomic characteristics of each reference to assign reads to the associated set. .SH OPTIONS .TP \fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR show this help message and exit .TP \fB\-r\fR REFFILE1, \fB\-\-reffile1\fR REFFILE1 Reference file of species 1 in fasta\-format. Should pair with name1 .TP \fB\-R\fR REFFILE2, \fB\-\-reffile2\fR REFFILE2 Reference file of species 2 in fasta\-format. Should pair with name2 .TP \fB\-n\fR NAME1, \fB\-\-name1\fR NAME1 Name of species 1 .TP \fB\-N\fR NAME2, \fB\-\-name2\fR NAME2 Name of species 2 .TP \fB\-1\fR UNASSIGNED1, \fB\-\-unassigned1\fR UNASSIGNED1 Fasta\- or fastq\-file containing mixed reads. .TP \fB\-2\fR UNASSIGNED2, \fB\-\-unassigned2\fR UNASSIGNED2 Fasta\- or fastq\-file containing mixed reads, only required in paired end mode. .TP \fB\-k\fR KMERSIZES, \fB\-\-kmersizes\fR KMERSIZES Order of Markov\-Chain/kmer length. Enter as range (e.g. 4:8) or list (e.g. 4,6,8) or integer (e.g. 8). Default = 8 .TP \fB\-o\fR OUTPATH, \fB\-\-outpath\fR OUTPATH Folder to write results to. Default = $name1_$name2/ in your working directory .TP \fB\-a\fR AMOUNT, \fB\-\-amount\fR AMOUNT Number of reads to be simulated, default = 50000 .TP \fB\-t\fR THREADS, \fB\-\-threads\fR THREADS Number of Threads to use .TP \fB\-x\fR CHUNKSIZE, \fB\-\-chunksize\fR CHUNKSIZE Size of chunks created at a time for simulation, default = 100000. Only change if you know what you are doing! .TP \fB\-g\fR GAPSIZE, \fB\-\-gapsize\fR GAPSIZE Estimated size of gapsize in case of paired end reads, default = 1 .TP \fB\-c\fR CUTOFF_LOWER, \fB\-\-cutoff_lower\fR CUTOFF_LOWER Lower cutoff: Output only reads with a score lower than or equal to this value, use m1 for \fB\-1\fR .TP \fB\-C\fR CUTOFF_HIGHER, \fB\-\-cutoff_higher\fR CUTOFF_HIGHER Higher cutoff: Output only reads with a score higher than or equal to this value, use m1 for \fB\-1\fR .TP \fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-delete_temp\fR \eDelete temporary files. Calculations will start from beginning next time. .TP \fB\-f\fR FILETYPE, \fB\-\-filetype\fR FILETYPE Type of your input reads. fasta or fastq, default = fastq .SH AUTHOR This manpage was written by Andreas Tille for the Debian distribution and can be used for any other usage of the program.
