Enhancement: Provide NCBI taxids in output #3

Closed sjaenick closed 6 years ago

sjaenick commented 6 years ago

The rank/tax. name combination is not necessarily unique; would it be possible to include NCBI taxids as an additional output column?

muellan commented 6 years ago

You mean for the mapping result? With the command line argument "-taxids" the NCBI taxon id will be printed in parenthesis after the rank and name. With "-taxids-only" it will print "rank:taxid".

perfect, thanks
