Function

   Finds all exact matches of a given size between 2 sequences

Description

   Finds all exact matches of a given minimum size between 2 sequences
   displaying the start points in each sequence and the match length.

   This program takes two sequences and finds regions where they are
   identical. These regions are reported in the output file (and
   optionally) in GFF (Gene Feature Format) files.

   It will not find identical regions smaller than the specified
   wordsize.

Usage

   Here is a sample session with wordmatch


% wordmatch tsw:hba_human tsw:hbb_human 
Finds all exact matches of a given size between 2 sequences
Word size [4]: 
Output alignment [hba_human.wordmatch]: 
Features output [HBA_HUMAN.gff]: 
Second features output [HBB_HUMAN.gff]:

Output file format

   The output is a standard EMBOSS alignment file.

   The results can be output in one of several styles by using the
   command-line qualifier -aformat xxx, where 'xxx' is replaced by the
   name of the required format. Some of the alignment formats can cope
   with an unlimited number of sequences, while others are only for pairs
   of sequences.

   The available multiple alignment format names are: unknown, multiple,
   simple, fasta, msf, trace, srs

   The available pairwise alignment format names are: pair, markx0,
   markx1, markx2, markx3, markx10, srspair, score

   See: http://emboss.sf.net/docs/themes/AlignFormats.html for further
   information on alignment formats.

   The normal 'report' header is output. It contains the details of the
   program run and the input sequences.

   The data lines consist of five columns separated by spaces or TAB
   characters. Each line contains the information on one identical
   region. The first column is the length of the match. The second column
   is the name of the first sequence. The third column is the start and
   end position of the match. The next two columns are the name and
   positions of the second sequence.
