NAME

       khmer - k-mer counting, filtering and graph traversal FTW!

       khmer is a library and toolkit for doing k-mer-based dataset analysis and transformations

SYNOPSIS

       khmer <prog_name> [options] args

       eg.

       khmer load-into-counting -x 1e8 -k 20 reads.ct reads.fa.gz

USAGE

       This  manpage  only describes the khmer wrapper script. To find out about the software and
       how to use it please see /usr/share/doc/khmer or else http://khmer.readthedocs.org/.

       On Debian/Ubuntu, package maintainers avoid putting large collections of scripts  directly
       into  the  system  PATH.  Rather, a single wrapper script is used to launch the script you
       want to use;  therefore  if  the  khmer  instructions  say  to  run  load-into-counting.py
       ...whatever...  you need to prefix this command with khmer. Furthermore, the .py extension
       may be omitted, resulting in a command of the format shown above.

       If you don´t like this, simply add /usr/lib/khmer/bin to your personal PATH.

       This wrapper and manpage were written by Tim Booth, who takes no credit for khmer itself.
