If the k-mer size is "long," e.g. 33 as may be necessary for a very reduced alphabet like hydrophobic-polar (alphabet size = 2), then some sequences in the provided fasta may be the k-mer length or shorter, which throws an error. Thus, the option to ignore short sequences should be added. I can't think of a joke here to lighten the mood as I have a headache, but hopefully that was clear!
