Does Kindel consensus consider base qualities? #21

Thank you for providing this useful tool to the community. I was wondering if base quality is considered when determining min-depth for the consensus call such as iVar (https://andersen-lab.github.io/ivar/html/manualpage.html#autotoc_md19)?

Hi @sureman, base quality is not considered currently. I agree that this coud be a useful feature, athough it is not something I currently plan to implement. I do have some other improvements planned and am always happy to field suggestions.
