NAME

       garli - phylogenetic analysis of molecular sequence data using maximum-likelihood

SYNOPSIS

       garli [OPTION] [config filename]

DESCRIPTION

       GARLI,  Genetic  Algorithm  for  Rapid  Likelihood  Inference  is  a program for inferring
       phylogenetic trees. Using an approach similar to a classical genetic algorithm, it rapidly
       searches  the  space  of  evolutionary  trees  and  model  parameters to find the solution
       maximizing the likelihood score. It implements  nucleotide,  amino  acid  and  codon-based
       models  of  sequence evolution, and runs on all platforms. The latest version adds support
       for partitioned models and morphology-like datatypes.

OPTIONS

       -i, --interactive
              interactive mode (allow and/or expect user feedback)

       -b, --batch
              batch mode (do not expect user input) (batch is the default for the version you are
              running)

       -v, --version
              print version information and exit

       -h, --help
              print this help and exit

       -t     run internal tests (requires dataset and config file)

       -V     validate: load config file and data, validate config file, data, starting trees and
              constraint files, print required memory and selected model, then exit

       NOTE: If no config filename is passed on the command line the program  will  look  in  the
       current directory for a file named "garli.conf"
