PROGRAM:
NAME
NCLconverter - report of content of NEXUS file
DESCRIPTION
NCLconverter takes reads a file and writes a report of the content to a file prefix
(specified with the -o flag) in the chosen output format (specified with the -e flag).
The most common usage is simply:
NCLconverter <path to NEXUS file>
OPTIONS
-h on the command line shows this help message
-q suppress NCL status messages while reading files
-l<path> reads a file and treats each line of the file as a path to NEXUS file
-a output AltNexus (no translation table in trees)
-x do NOT validate internal labels in trees as taxa labels
-X do NOT treat numbers in trees as taxon numbers, treat them as arbitrary
labels (should not be used with NEXUS files).
-s<non-negative integer> controls the NEXUS strictness level.
the default level is equivalent to -s2 invoking the program with -s3 or a higher
number will convert some warnings into fatal errors. Running with -s1 will cause
the parser to accept dangerous constructs, and running with -s0 will cause the
parser make every attempt to finish parsing the file (warning about very serious
errors).
Note that when -s0 strictness level is used, and the parser fails to finish, it
will often be the result of an earlier error than the error that is reported in the
last message.
-i<number> specifies the length of the interleaved pages to create
-f<format> specifies the input file format expected:
-fnexus
NEXUS (this is also the default)
-faafasta
Amino acid data in fasta
-fdnafasta
DNA data in fasta
-frnafasta
RNA data in fasta
The complete list of format names that can follow the -f flag is:
nexus dnafasta aafasta rnafasta dnaphylip rnaphylip aaphylip discretephylip
dnaphylipinterleaved rnaphylipinterleaved aaphylipinterleaved
discretephylipinterleaved dnarelaxedphylip rnarelaxedphylip aarelaxedphylip

aarelaxedphylipinterleaved discreterelaxedphylipinterleaved dnaaln rnaaln aaaln
phyliptree relaxedphyliptree nexml dnafin aafin rnafin
-e<format> specifies the output file format expected:
-enexus
"normalized" NEXUS output
-efasta
Character data in fasta (could result in multiple output files)
-ephylip
Trees and character data in phylip (could result in multiple output files)
-erelaxedphylip
Trees and character data in relaxed phylip (could result in multiple output files)
-enexml
nexml output (this is also the default)
-o<fn> specifies the output prefix.
An appropriate suffix and extension are added
-d<fn> specifies the single output destination. Or you can use -d- to indicate that
output should be directed to standard output.Warning use of this option may result
in an invalid output due to concatenation of separate "blocks" of information into
a single file!
-u converts underscores to spaces in formats other than NEXUS.
-y<filename> translate to "safe" taxon names and store the new names as a NEXUS.
file called <filename> with a TaxaAssociation block. The first taxa block in the
association block will hold the original names, and the second will hold the "safe"
names
-Y<filename> behaves like -y, except with -Y a translation file will be produced even
if the original names were already "safe"
-z<filename> use the NEXUS-formatted file called <filename> with a TaxaAssociation block
to restore original names.
Assumes that the first taxa block in the TaxaAssociation
block holds the original name and the second is the current name. This function is
useful for "undoing" the effects of the -y option.
-j Suppress the creation of a NameTranslationFile
