Installing instructions
- StrainSeeker requires both PERL and R - please install those first

- Extract all the files into a separate directory for StrainSeeker. Database resides in its own subdirectory (directory is already created, just use tar -xzvf to unpack)
- All the programs and scripts should be under the main directory, but not IN the database directory
- Finally, just run either "perl seeker.pl" for detecting strains or "perl builder.pl" if you wish to build your own database.
