FASTA file of known contamination in long reads
--scores SCORES
Comma-delimited string of alignment scores: match, mismatch, gap open, gap extend (default: 3,-6,-5,-2)
--low_score LOW_SCORE
Score threshold - alignments below this are considered poor (default: set threshold automatically)
--keep_bad
Include alignments in the results even if they are below the low score threshold (default: low-scoring alignments are discarded)

--threads THREADS
Number of threads used (default: number of CPUs, up to 8)
--verbosity VERBOSITY
Level of stdout information (0 to 4) (default: 1)
