Revision History: Version 1.53     Released November 28, 2005          Allow user to "jumble" the order of sequences in the distance matrix (use -jumble)          Allow the user to input a similarity matrix, although correction is still recommended (use -sim)          Modified data types in otu.h making the clustering procedure use less memory and faster          DOTUR now produces a file containing data to construct rank-abundance plots Version 1.51     Released April 22, 2005          Support MEGA3 formatted distance matrices as input file Version 1.5     Released April 19, 2005          Added 95% CI for ACE richness estimator          Updated bias-corrected Chao1 richness estimator and standard error formulae according to              Colwell and Chao          Allow user to set largest distance to consider (-stop)          Allow user to construct a rarefaction curve obtained by sampling with replacement (-wrep)          Fixed a problem in constructing collector's curves caused by sequence names that are a              fragment of another name Version 1.4     Released March 8, 2005          Fixed bug in calculating 95% confidence interval for Chao1 estimator Version 1.3     Released March 3, 2005          Final release before publication of paper in March 2005 issue of AEM          Fixed libraries dependency error that caused compilation problems on some platforms          Fixed core dump error received by some users          Fixed bugs in reporting Shannon & Simpson Indices          Changed number of places to report right of the decimal point for output files          Streamlined terminal output          Added user control of whether to calculate rarefaction curve for ecological parameters             (still calcuates traditional rarefaction curve) - makes execution much faster          Fixed some problems and updated parts of user manual Version 1.2     Released August 28, 2004          Fixed bug in calculating variance of shannon index          Fixed bug in calculating 95% confidence interval of Chao1          Give user the flexibility to set the number of iterations to run          Reverted to presenting the mean instead of 50%tile for rarefaction curve          Fixed a small bug that had rarefaction curves going through (1,0) instead of (1,1)          Changed *.r_rarefaction filename to *.rarefaction          Changed *.r_*.ltt to *.ltt filenames (eg. *r_chao.ltt is now *.chao.ltt)          Wrote first version of user manual Version 1.1     Released July 19, 2004          Fixed bug in shannon index files          Expanded number of values to the right of the decimal point from 2 to 4 Version 1.0     Released May 25, 2004
