DAWG

NAME

dawg − DNA assembly with gaps, a DNA sequence simulator

DESCRIPTION

dawg 1.2−release DNA Assembly With Gaps Copyright © 2004−2009 Reed A. Cartwright

dawg −[scubvhqew?] [−o outputfile] file1 [file2...]

−s: process files serially [default]

−c: process files combined together

−u: unbuffered output

−b: buffered output [default]

−q: disable error and warning reports (quiet)

−e: enable error reports [default]

−w: enable warning reports [default]

−v: display version information

−h: display help information

−?: same as −h

−o outputfile: override output filename in the configuration file

Dawg will read stdin if filename is "−".

FILE FORMAT

The file format takes a series of statements in the form of "name = value," where "name" is alphanumeric and value can be a string, number, boolean, tree, or vector of values. A single variable is equivalent to a vector of a single entry.

string: "[char−sequence]"

’[char−sequence]’ """[multi−line char−sequence]""" (rm initial and final newlines) ’’’[multi−line char−sequence]’’’ (kp initial and final newlines)

number: [sign]digits[.digits][(e|E)[sign]digits] boolean: true|false tree: Newick Format vector: { value, value, ...}
