msaconverter

1 Introduction

msaconverter is a tool to convert a multiple sequence alignment into different format with Biopython (http://www.biopython.org/)

2 Installation

pip install msaconverter

There will be a command msaconverter created under the same directory as your pip command.

3 Usage

$ msaconverter usage: msaconverter.py [-h] [-i ] [-o ] [-p {fasta,clustal,stockholm,nexus,phylip,phylip-sequential,phylip-relaxed,mauve,maf}] [-q {fasta,clustal,stockholm,nexus,phylip,phylip-sequential,phylip-relaxed,mauve,maf}]
