Re: [Mauve-users] exported gaps and annotations

[Aaron D. <aar...@ut...>]

Hi Thierry, good question about the gap file & column headers.
The first columns are as described by the file headers. The subsequent
columns come in triplets, one triplet for each aligned genome,
containing the following information:
1. The genomic position of the gap
2. The name of the chromosome where the gap is located
3. The contig-local position of the gap
I agree this is confusing and this information should be added to the
file headers in a future Mauve release.
As for your second question, there is currently no way to produce a
reordered GenBank format file with the contig mover. 
If you've got automatically generated annotations, then if possible I
would suggest running the annotation after reordering contigs.
Best,
-Aaron
