.TH "hmm2convert" 1 "Oct 2003" "HMMER 2.3.2" "HMMER Manual"
.SH NAME
.TP
hmm2convert - convert between profile HMM file formats
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B hmm2convert
.I [options]
.I oldhmmfile
.I newhmmfile
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B hmm2convert
reads an HMM file from
.I oldhmmfile
in any HMMER format, and writes it to a new file
.I newhmmfile
in a new format.
.I oldhmmfile
and
.I newhmmfile
must be different files; you can't reliably overwrite
the old file.
By default, the new HMM file is written in HMMER 2
ASCII format.
Available formats are HMMER 2 ASCII (default), HMMER 2 binary
.I (-b)
GCG profile
.I (-p)
, and Compugen XSW extended profile
.I (-P).
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B -a
Convert to HMMER 2 ASCII file. This is the default, so this option
is unnecessary.
.TP
.B -b
Convert to HMMER 2 binary file.
.TP
.B -h
Print brief help; includes version number and summary of
all options, including expert options.
.TP
.B -p
Convert to GCG profile .prf format.
.TP
.B -A
Append mode; append to
.I newhmmfile
rather than creating a new file.
.TP
.B -F
Force; if
.I newhmmfile
already exists, and
.I -A
is not being used to append to the file,
hmm2convert will refuse to clobber the existing
file unless
.I -F
is used.
.TP
.B -P
Convert the HMM to Compugen XSW extended profile format,
which is similar to GCG profile format but has two
extra columns for delete-open and delete-extend costs.
(I do not believe that Compugen publicly supports this
format; it may be undocumented.)
