Training options:
force reverse-complement symmetry
force symmetric substitution matrix
force insertion/deletion symmetry
skip alignments with > PID% identity (default: 100)
skip mostly-lowercase alignments (default=1)
number of random sequence samples (default: 500)
length of each sample (default: 2000)
Initial parameter options:
match score (default: 6 if Q>0, else 5)
mismatch cost (default: 18 if Q>0, else 5)
match/mismatch score matrix
gap existence cost (default: 21 if Q>0, else 15)
gap extension cost (default: 9 if Q>0, else 3)
insertion existence cost
insertion extension cost
Alignment options:
query letters per random alignment (default: 1e6)
maximum expected alignments per square giga
0=reverse, 1=forward, 2=both (default: 2 if DNA, else 1)
score matrix applies to forward strand of: 0=reference, 1=query (default: 1)
omit gapless alignments in COUNT others with > scoreper-length
type of alignment: 0=local, 1=overlap (default: 0)
maximum initial matches per query position (default: 10)
use initial matches starting at every STEP-th position in each query (default: 1)
number of parallel threads
input format: 0=fasta or fastq-ignore, 1=fastq-sanger (default=fasta)
