Hello,

Is there a command/script to calculate pairwise distances for a set of
sequences in POY4?

In the commands manual I see this:

> compare:(BOOL, identifiers, identifiers)
> If the boolean argument is set to false, the command
> reports the ratios of all pairwise distances to their
> maximum length for the characters specified by
> character identifiers. If the boolean argument is
> set to true, the complement sequences for the
> characters specified by the second identifier are
> computed prior to reporting the distance.

So would report("file.txt",compare:(false, identifiers)) do it? And
identifiers would be the names of the characters?
