Hi,
I know this is a bit random, but I stumbled here when a colleague asked me for help to understand your input format.
I was able to help him, however, I was thinking that your edges.txt and branch.txt could advangeously be replaced by a single tree in newick format, which is the accepted standard way of representing simple binary trees with branch lengths in the phylogenetic community.
Perhaps there are technical/model-based llimitations that would prevent this?
Anyhow, I just wished to try to help you improve on your software which seems, otherwise, quite useful.
Hi WandrilleD @WandrilleD,
Thank you very much for your suggestion. This is very helpful. We'll update the software by using the newick format to represent the tree structure and the branch lengths. Thanks!
