CAP3: A DNA sequence assembly program.

CAP3 if the third generation of the CAP sequence assembly program. The
program has a capability to clip 5' and 3' low-quality regions of reads.
It uses base quality values in computation of overlaps between reads,
construction of multiple sequence alignments of reads, and generation
of consensus sequences. The program also uses forward-reverse constraints
to correct assembly errors and link contigs.

This just repackages the binaries provided from upstream.

If you use CAP3 in any published work, please cite:
