The description for distribution files in the user manual is not correct

[dawnmy]

it states:

{out}/distributions/distribution_{i}.txt
'{i}' is the index for each sample that is to be generated.

Column 1: genome_ID
Column 2: abundance
'genome_ID' is the identifier of the genomes used.
'abundance' is the relative abundance of a genome to be simulated. 'abundance' does not reflect the amount of genetic data of a genome, but the amount of genomes.

but the second column is actually reads in percentage.

The abundance_{i} files are the relative abundance files.
