Feature request: add verbosity control #3

Closed jeromekelleher closed 10 years ago

jeromekelleher commented 10 years ago

mccortex is quite chatty, which is useful to give users information about what is going on. However, in general, a user should be able to control the amount of information printed out.

One option is to provide a -v option, which turns up verbosity. Multiple -v options provided increase the verbosity. This usually implies that the program is silent by default. Another alternative is to provide a -q --quiet option to allow a user to silence the program.

Can do. We currently use: -Q,--fq-offset, -q,--fq-cutoff and -v,--invert. My preference is to have the default noisy, and add a quiet option.

How about -V,--verbose <level> where level is 0 (off) or 1 (on [default])? Or I could see about freeing up -q.

I've added the -q,--quiet option. Thanks for the feature request.
