# example input file, you can write comments on lines that start with # #entries should be separated by tabs or spaces # on the first row list # pre-bottleneck theta = 4*(effective population size)*(mutation rate) # then average size of mutations that are not one-step mutations # then the percent of the time mutations are larger (not one-step) 4 3.5 0.2 # now list each locus one at a time, first put the size of repeats # for this locus (ie 2 would mean this is a dinucleotide microsatellite) 2 #then put the allele sizes 10 8 6 4 2 # then the number of observations of each type of allele 22 20 20 24 20 # This is the format for locus 2 3 0 3 6 12 10 1 10 10 # thats it!
