        This manpage was written by Nilesh Patra for the Debian distribution and
        can be used for any other usage of the program.

ntcard 1.2.2                                       April 2021                                          NTCARD(1)

       Estimates k-mer coverage histogram in FILE(S).

       Acceptable  file  formats:  fastq,  fasta, sam, bam and in compressed formats gz, bz, zip, xz.  A list of
       files containing file names in each row can be passed with @ prefix.

              Options:

       -t, --threads=N
              use N parallel threads [1] (N>=2 should be used when input files are >=2)

       -k, --kmer=N
              the length of kmer

       -g, --gap=N
              the length of gap in the gap seed [0]. g mod 2 must equal k mod 2  unless  g  ==  0  -g  does  not
              support multiple k currently.

       -c, --cov=N
              the maximum coverage of kmer in output [1000]

       -p, --pref=STRING
              the prefix for output file name(s)

       -o, --output=STRING
              the name for output file name (used when output should be a single file)

       --help display this help and exit

       --version output version information and exit
