Hello again, Preeti,

After taking a closer look at your attached PSL file, I think I see the 
problem. 
  The 14th field is for "target sequence name" -- it is expecting a chrom name 
in the form of "chr1" for example.

Additionally, I think the program is confused by the "name" in the 10th field 
-- 
I'm not sure it's able to parse the pipes ("|").

        Q       Q       Q       T

        match   match           count   bases   count   bases           name    
        size    start   end 
name            size    start   end     count
