Prints information about idXML files.

Note: Currently mzIdentML (mzid) is not directly supported as an input/output format of this tool. Convert mzid files to/from idXML using IDFileConverter if necessary.

Usage:
  SequenceCoverageCalculator <options>

Options (mandatory options marked with '*'):
  -in_database <file>*  Input file containing the database in FASTA format (valid formats: 'fasta')
  -in_peptides <file>*  Input file containing the identified peptides (valid formats: 'idXML')
  -out <file>           Optional text output file. If left out, the output is written to the command line. 
                        (valid formats: 'idXML')
                        
Common TOPP options:
  -ini <file>           Use the given TOPP INI file
  -threads <n>          Sets the number of threads allowed to be used by the TOPP tool (default: '1')
  -write_ini <file>     Writes the default configuration file
  --help                Shows options
  --helphelp            Shows all options (including advanced)

This section lists all parameters supported by the tool. Parameters are organized into hierarchical subsections that group related settings together. Subsections may contain further subsections or individual parameters.

Each parameter entry contains the following information:

Name The identifier used in configuration files and on the command line.
Default value The value used if the parameter is not explicitly specified.
Description A short explanation describing the purpose and behavior of the parameter.
Tags Additional metadata associated with the parameter.
Restrictions Allowed value ranges for numeric parameters or valid options for string parameters.

Parameter tags provide additional information about how a parameter is used. Some tags indicate whether a parameter is required or intended for advanced configuration, while others may be used internally by OpenMS or workflow tools.

Parameters highlighted as required must be specified for the tool to run successfully. Parameters marked as advanced allow fine-tuning of algorithm behavior and are typically not needed for standard workflows.
