I think super does not handle nucleic acid sequences well. super ec-5s, hm-5s, seq=-1
works. I'll leave it to someone else to say what that does. I just noted that align works, super doesn't, guessed it had to do with sequence and noted that for align, the default value of seq was -1 and for super, the default value was 0. -David On Fri, Jan 13, 2012 at 7:44 AM, QT <rdirect...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear all, > > I'm having a tough time using the super command correctly.
