16 The hmmconvert utility converts an input profile file to different HM‐
17 MER formats.
18
19
20 By default, the input profile can be in any HMMER format, including
21 old/obsolete formats from HMMER2, ASCII or binary; the output profile
22 is a current HMMER3 ASCII format.

24
25 hmmfile may be '-' (dash), which means reading this input from stdin
26 rather than a file.

35 -a Output profiles in ASCII text format. This is the default.

38 -b Output profiles in binary format.

41 -2 Output in legacy HMMER2 ASCII text format, in ls (glocal) mode.
42 This allows HMMER3 models to be converted back to a close ap‐
43 proximation of HMMER2, for comparative studies.

46 --outfmt <s>
47 Output in a HMMER3 ASCII text format other then the most current
48 one. Valid choices for <s> are 3/a through 3/f. The current
49 format is 3/f, and this is the default. The format 3/b was used
50 in the official HMMER3 release, and the others were used in the
51 various testing versions.
