This manpage only describes the khmer wrapper script. To find out about the software and how to use it
please see /usr/share/doc/khmer or else http://khmer.readthedocs.org/.
On Debian/Ubuntu, package maintainers avoid putting large collections of scripts directly into the system
PATH. Rather, a single wrapper script is used to launch the script you want to use; therefore if the
khmer instructions say to run load-into-counting.py ...whatever... you need to prefix this command with
khmer. Furthermore, the .py extension may be omitted, resulting in a command of the format shown above.
If you donβt like this, simply add /usr/lib/khmer/bin to your personal PATH.
