       SYNOPSIS

              pair_align [OPTIONS] -s IN.fa

       DESCRIPTION

              The  program  allows  to  align  two sequences using dyamic programming alignment algorithms while
              tweaking various parameters.

       -hi, --high INT

              Upper diagonal.

              DP Matrix Configuration Options:

       -c, --config CONF

              Alignment  configuration. One of ffff, ffft, fftf, fftt, ftff, ftft, fttf, fttt, tfff, tfft, tftf,
              tftt, ttff, ttft, tttf, and tttt.

       ALIGNMENT CONFIGURATION

              The alignment configuration is a string of  four  characters,  each  being  either  t  or  f.  All
              combinations are allowed. The meaning is as follows.

       tfff   First row initialized with 0s.

       ftff   First column initialized with 0s.

       fftf   Search last column for maximum.

       ffft   Search last row for maximum.
