"""
Translate a maf file containing gap ambiguity characters as produced by
'maf_tile_2.py' to a new file in which "#" (contiguous) is replaced by "-" and
all other types are replaces by "*".

TODO: This could be much more general, should just take the translation table
      from the command line.

usage: %prog < maf > maf
