It appears that the HTML description of calibrate-scores is different from what the program actually does. The following differences should be eliminated.
The HTML says that there is a required argument specifying which column to extract the score from. This should instead be an optional parameter called "--score-column" where the default value is "XCorr score". Currently, the user has no control over which column is selected.
The program usage statement offers a --protein-database option. This option should be eliminated.
The HTML spec says the output files will be named calibrate-scores., but they are actually named qvalue.. The program behavior should be changed to match the spec.
Changes 2 and 3 are easy to make.
For change 1, the program also relies on the "xcorr rank" column, so the rank column might have to change with the score column. Also (though it is not mentioned in the documentation), the program can take pep.xml, sqt, or mzid as input in which case the score-column parameter would work differently.
OK, let's make changes 2 and 3, and then just updated the documentation to
make clear how the program chooses the columns/scores to use. We will be
revising this program extensively before too long, at which time we can fix
this.
