+Pkg-Description: searching DNA and protein databases
+ FASTA (pronounced FAST-AYE) stands for FAST-ALL, reflecting the fact
+ that it can be used for a fast protein comparison or a fast
+ nucleotide comparison. This program achieves a high level of
+ sensitivity for similarity searching at high speed. This is achieved
+ by performing optimised searches for local alignments using a
+ substitution matrix. The high speed of this program is achieved by
+ using the observed pattern of word hits to identify potential matches
+ before attempting the more time consuming optimised search. The
+ trade-off between speed and sensitivity is controlled by the ktup
+ parameter, which specifies the size of the word. Increasing the ktup
+ decreases the number of background hits. Not every word hit is
+ investigated but instead initially looks for segment's containing
+ several nearby hits.
