+Galaxy tool to wrap the MIRA sequence assembly program
+======================================================
+
+This tool is copyright 2011 by Peter Cock, The James Hutton Institute
+(formerly SCRI, Scottish Crop Research Institute), UK. All rights reserved.
+See the licence text below.
+
+This tool is a short Python script (to collect the MIRA output and move it
+to where Galaxy expects the files, and convert MIRA's TCS file into a tab
+separate file for use in Galaxy). There are just two files to install:
+
+* mira.py (the Python script)
+* mira.xml (the Galaxy tool definition)
+
+The suggested location is the tools/sr_assembly folder. You will also need to
+modify the tools_conf.xml file to tell Galaxy to offer the tool and also do
+this to tools_conf.xml.sample in order to run any tests:
+
+<tool file="sr_assembly/seq_primer_clip.xml" />
+
+You will also need to install MIRA, we used version 3.2.1. See:
+
+http://chevreux.org/projects_mira.html
+http://sourceforge.net/projects/mira-assembler/
+
+WARNING: This tool was developed to construct viral genome assembly and
+mapping pipelines, for which the run time and memory requirements are
+negligible. For larger tasks, be aware that MIRA can require vast amounts
+of RAM and run-times of over a week are possible. This tool wrapper makes
+no attempt to spot and reject such large jobs.
