okay so bestie, welcome to pxlstr, part of the phyx user commands family 🌸 she's a little legend who reads your trees and tells you everything about them. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

pxlstr — print tree summary 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pxlstr [OPTIONS]...

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

okay so basically: print tree summary. that's the whole vibe ✨

by default she returns all properties — like, the full info dump, main character energy. OR, if you're feeling picky, you can choose 1 property and she'll give you just that one. slay.

she'll take a newick- or nexus-formatted tree from a file or from STDIN. either way, she eats. 💅

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -t, --treef=FILE — input tree file. if you don't pass one, she reads from STDIN instead 🫶
• -r, --rooted — returns whether the tree is rooted 🌱
• -a, --age — returns the height of the root. > bestie this one has requirements: the tree must be rooted AND ultrametric, no exceptions, she will not be doing it otherwise 😭
• -n, --ntips — returns the number of terminals 🌸
• -u, --ultrametric — returns whether the tree is ultrametric ⏳
• -b, --binary — returns whether the tree is binary 🌿
• -l, --length — returns the length of the tree 📏
• -i, --tiplabels — returns all tip labels, one per line 🏷️
• -v, --rtvar — returns root-to-tip variance 📈
• -o, --outf=FILE — output tree stats file. otherwise it goes to STOUT (yes bestie, STOUT, that's what it says 💀) 🎀
• -h, --help — display this help and exit, the classic escape hatch 🙈
• -V, --version — display version and exit 🔖
• -C, --citation — display the phyx citation and exit 📚
