yak inspect "-p" unused #9

Hi Dr. Li,

Thanks so much for developing this tool. I'm currently exploring the usage of yak to see if I could incorporate it into a pipeline. In the pipeline, I'd need to get a list a kmers (preferably one I could read). To to this with yak,

I downloaded the latest branch: " git clone https://github.com/lh3/yak.git cd yak && make "

I tried to use yak to generate a list of kmers via these two commands: "" ./yak count -b37 -t6 -o kmers.yak reads.fq.gz ./yak inspect -p kmers.yak > list.kmers ""

However, the output is the exact same as the command to develop a histogram, i.e. " ./yak inspect kmers.yak > list.kmers

Admittedly, "./yak inspect -h" only presents a single flag "-m" for use, which perhaps means that "-p" has been discontinued? Am I misunderstanding what the program is supposed to be doing (highly likely), or is this a bug? Please advise.

Thanks in advance! Best, bjp
