Split command using fasta files

[koopkaup]

I used mafft to align query sequences against reference msa (both in fasta format) and also the combined msa is in fasta format. Right now I have to convert everything to phylip to use the split command, but it would be nice if epa could use fasta format as well.

Hi @koopkaup, apologies that this wasn't a feature yet, the split function was really only meant as a band-aid initially.

I pushed this feature to the dev branch for now, so feel free to use it! I will hopefully be able to overhaul the sequence ingestion in one of the next releases a bit to directly allow passing combined input files, so stay tuned for that.

Happy Placement, Pierre

Thank you! Dev version worked fine.
