Command line arguments

   Standard (Mandatory) qualifiers:
  [-goldsequence]      sequence   Test aligned and substituted sequence
  [-testsequence]      sequence   Gold standard aligned and substituted
                                  sequence
  [-outfile]           outfile    If you enter the name of a file here then
                                  this program will write the score details
                                  into that file.
