LEON

NAME

leon - reference free compression for NGS reads

OPTIONS

leon options

	-file		(1 arg) : input file (e.g. FASTA/FASTQ for compress or .leon file for decompress)
	-c		(0 arg) : compression
	-d		(0 arg) : decompression

-nb-cores

(1 arg) : number of cores (default is the available number of cores) [default ’0’]

-lossless

(0 arg) : switch to lossless compression for qualities (default is lossy. lossy has much higher compression rate, and the loss is in fact a gain. lossy is better!)

compression options

-kmer-size

(1 arg) : size of a kmer [default ’31’]

-abundance

(1 arg) : abundance threshold for solid kmers (default inferred) [default ’’]

-init-iterator

(0 arg) : init iterator for ibank mode

-seq-only

(0 arg) : store dna seq only, header and quals are discarded, will decompress to fasta (same as -noheader -noqual)

-noheader
