-in <inputfile> Input file in FASTA format (default stdin)
-out <outputfile> Output alignment in FASTA format (default stdout)
-diags Find diagonals (faster for similar sequences)
-maxiters <n> Maximum number of iterations (integer, default 16)
-maxhours <h> Maximum time to iterate in hours (default no limit)
-html Write output in HTML format (default FASTA)
-msf Write output in GCG MSF format (default FASTA)

-log[a] <logfile> Log to file (append if -loga, overwrite if -log)
-quiet Do not write progress messages to stderr
-version Display version information and exit
Without refinement (very fast, avg accuracy similar to T-Coffee): -maxiters 2
Fastest possible (amino acids): -maxiters 1 -diags -sv -distance1 kbit20_3
Fastest possible (nucleotides): -maxiters 1 -diags
