  NAME
      clm order - reorder clusterings conformal to inclusion structure

      clmorder	is  not  in  actual  fact  a program. This manual page documents the behaviour and options of the clm program when invoked in mode
      order. The options -h, --apropos, --version, -set, --nop are accessible in all clm modes. They are described in the clm manual page.

  SYNOPSIS
      clm order [-prefix <string> (file multiplex prefix)] [-o <fname> (concatenated output in single file)] <cluster|stack>+

  DESCRIPTION
      Given a set of input clusterings clm order first transform it into a stack of strictly nesting clusterings. It does this by splitting  clus-
      ters  where  necessary.  It then reorders the coarsest (i.e. level-one) clustering, from large to small clusters. After that it reorders the
      second coarsest clustering conformally such that the first batch among its reordered clusters covers the level-one largest cluster, the sec-
      ond batch covers the level-one second largest cluster, and so on. Within these constraints, each batch of second-level clusters (correspond-
      ing to a single first-level cluster) is again ordered from larger to smaller clusters. This process is applied  recursively  throughout  the
      entire stack of input clusters.

      The input can be specified in multiple files, and a single file may contain multiple clusterings. The output is by default written as a con-
      catenation of matrix files, the so-called stack format. Use the -o option to specify the output file. The stacked format can be converted to
      Newick format using mcxdump(1). The output can be written to multiple files, one for each projected clustering, by using the -prefix option.
      By example, -prefix P leads to output in files named P1, P2, ..PN, where N is the number of clusters in the input,  P1  is  the  most  fine-
      grained ordered clustering, and PN is the coarsest clustering.

  OPTIONS
      -prefix (<string>)
      -o (<fname>)
	As decribed above.
