Warning whole-genome local aligner (PALs: cannot be installed on the cluster)
At the time PILER was developed, there were no tools suitable for making local self-alignments of whole chromosomes or whole genomes. PALS was a quick hack to make local alignments for PILER.
The code has significant limitations, e.g. the code is built for a 32-bit processor architecture and does not scale well to larger genomes.
It would require a major effort to develop a new version. I now recommend using LASTZ for whole-genome self-alignments.
