MODERN ALTERNATIVE

This suite of tools has been superseded by SeqFu, a compiled program providing faster and safer tools for sequence analysis. This suite is maintained for the higher portability of Perl scripts under certain circumstances.

SeqFu is available at https://github.com/telatin/seqfu2, and can be installed with BioConda conda install -c bioconda seqfu
