              non-conserved states, the target coverage, and the (prior) expected length of a conserved element,
              compute  the  relative  entropy  (H)  of  the  phylogenetic models, the expected minimum number of
              conserved sites required to predict  conserved  element  (L_min),  the  "phylogenetic  information
              threshold"  (PIT  =  L_min  *  H), and the expected maximum number of nonconserved sites tolerated
              within a conserved element (L_max).  Also will make a recommendation  for  a  new  prior  expected
              length based on a given target value of L_min*H (see --LminH).

--H, -H <value>

              Instead  of computing the relative entropy from two .mod files, just use the specified value.  The
              .mod files aren't required in this case.

       --LminH, -L <value> [or --NH/-N, for backward compatibility]

              Report the expected length that would produce  the  specified  value  of  L_min  *  H  (i.e.,  the
              specified  PIT),  assuming  H  remains  constant (it generally won't).  Can be used iteratively to
              converge on a desired PIT.

   NOTE:
              The relative entropy is currently computed by brute  force,  i.e.,  by  enumerating  all  possible
              labelings of the leaves of the tree.  This approach won't be feasible with large trees.
