NAME

       hmmpress - prepare an HMM database for hmmscan

SYNOPSIS

       hmmpress [options] <hmmfile>

DESCRIPTION

       Starting  from  a  profile  database  <hmmfile>  in  standard  HMMER3 format, construct binary compressed
       datafiles for hmmscan.  The hmmpress step is required for hmmscan to work.

       Four  files  are  created:  <hmmfile>.h3m,  <hmmfile>.h3i,   <hmmfile>.h3f,   and   <hmmfile>.h3p.    The
       <hmmfile>.h3m  file contains the profile HMMs and their annotation in a binary format.  The <hmmfile>.h3i
       file is an SSI index for the <hmmfile>.h3m  file.   The  <hmmfile>.h3f  file  contains  precomputed  data
       structures  for  the fast heuristic filter (the MSV filter).  The <hmmfile>.h3p file contains precomputed
       data structures for the rest of each profile.

       <hmmfile> may not be '-' (dash); running hmmpress on a standard input stream rather than a  file  is  not
       allowed.

OPTIONS

       -h     Help; print a brief reminder of command line usage and all available options.

       -f     Force;  overwrites  any previous hmmpress'ed datafiles. The default is to bitch about any existing
              files and ask you to delete them first.
