Support for Nexus format as input in PhyloNext #17

Open vmikk opened 4 months ago

vmikk commented 4 months ago

Currently, PhyloNext accepts phylogenetic trees in Newick format (due to its simplicity and widespread use). However, our pipeline internally converts these Newick trees into Nexus format at one of the intermediate steps. Given that both Newick and Nexus formats are provided in the outputs, there is a clear benefit to supporting Nexus as an input format directly.

Feature implemented, will be available in PhyloNext 1.5.0
