how to create multiple kmc db output as per @input_file_list.

[bio-developer]

I am doing this:

kmc -k31 -fm @fna_list.txt @kmc_out $PWD

is there a syntax for specifying kmc output database filename as per the list of provided list_of_fasta as input? What I am getting is a single DB file with the prefix @kmc_out having combined kmer counts not separate DB files for each fasta file. What is the correct way to do this?

Note: K-Mer Counter (KMC) ver. 3.2.1 (2022-01-04)

Hi,

The idea of input list is to treat all files as a single input and cerate one output db. For what you need you shold run kmc separately for each input file. May by worth to wrap it in some script. Thanks for using KMC!!
