MHAP(1)

💖 mhap(1) — User Commands 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the mhap page, section 1 of the User Commands manual, and lemme tell you, this one's a whole vibe 🌸

✨ NAME ✨

mhap — probabilistic sequence overlapping. that's it, that's the whole name, and honestly? it ate 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

mhap -s<fasta/dat from/self file> [-q<fasta/dat to file>] [-f<kmer
filter list, must be sorted>]
java -server -Xmx<memory> -jar $(which mhap) -s<fasta/dat from/self
file> [-q<fasta/dat to file>] [-f<kmer filter list, must be sorted>]

and if you're out here generating precomputed binaries, it's giving:

java -server -Xmx<memory> -jar $(which mhap) -p<directory of fasta
files> -q <output directory> [-f<kmer filter list, must be sorted>]

lowkey notice how -f always wants a sorted kmer filter list, okay? that's not a suggestion, that's the law 🙈

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so MHAP stands for MinHash Alignment Protocol (iconic acronym, no notes) and it's a tool for finding overlaps of long-read sequences — think PacBio or Nanopore — in bioinformatics. yes bestie, it's giving genomics main character energy 🧬👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -h, --help — shows you a lil summary of all the available options. very "let me introduce myself" of it 🫶
• --version — displays the version. that's the whole thing, and she's valid for it ✨

bestie reminder: the synopsis above lists -s, -q, -f and -p, but this page only documents -h/--help and --version down here. run -h if you want the full rundown, k? 💜

and that's the page, periodt 💖 this was the mhap entry, dated July 2016, living its best life in section 1 of the manual. go find some overlaps, bestie, you got this 🦋✨💅
