Update help menu and readme #10

Hi arvestad,

This is a fantastic tool. I wanted to use it for reading an alignment from stdin. I only worked out that this program does that after digging through your code in io.py. Please update the help menu and readme to tell the user that if you feed it stdin via -, then it will work.

Thanks again!

Hi,

I am glad you like alv!

The feature you refer to is documented in the help text: positional arguments: infile The infile is the path to a file, or '-' if reading from stdin.

I will add a note about it in the README though.

Thanks,
Lars
