Welcome to khmer, k-mer counting, filtering and graph traversal FTW!

As of August 2011, there's a khmer mailing list at librelist.com that
you can use to get help with khmer.  To sign up, just shoot
'khmer@librelist.com' an e-mail and it will subscribe you; then send
your question/comment there.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

khmer is *pre-publication* and *research* software, so please keep in
mind that (a) the code may have undiscovered bugs in it, (b) you
should cite us, and (c) you should get in touch if you need to cite
us, as we are writing up the project.

INSTRUCTIONS:
