=====================
  INTRODUCTION
=====================
We present a tool called PLEK (predictor of long non-coding RNAs and messenger 
RNAs based on k-mer scheme), which uses an improved computational pipeline 
based on k-mer and support vector machine (SVM) to distinguish long non-coding 
RNAs (lncRNAs) from messenger RNAs (mRNAs). 

=====================
  USAGE AND EXAMPLES
=====================
	-h --help		show this help message and exit
	
	--thread		the number of threads to run the PLEK programme
	
	--isoutmsg		Output messages to stdout(screen) or not. "0" means 
					that PLEK be run quietly. "1" means that PLEK outputs
					the details of processing. Default value: 0
					
	--isrmtempfile	Remove temporary files or not. "0" means that PLEK 
					retains temporary files. "1" means that PLEK remove 
					temporary files. Default value: 1

**example**
	ezLncPred PLEK -h
	ezLncPred -i example.fa -o results PLEK
	ezLncPred -i example.fa -o results PLEK --thread 4
	ezLncPred -i example.fa -o results PLEK --isoutmsg 1
	ezLncPred -i example.fa -o results PLEK --isrmtempfile 0
