**What it does**

TopHit_namefilter is a SIMPLE filter to keep just the TOPHIT / first [N] occurrence(s) of some identifier
useful for keeping only the first N tophits in blast when multiple hits were returned (and you don't want to rerun the BLAST analysis).

Please be aware that NO additional filtering or checking is done on for instance E values of BLAST hits.
Tophit = FIRST hit...not necessarily the best.. If multiple hits are selected to be returned
they will NOT be sorted (see below example of a number of 2 hits occurring somewhere else in the input
and therefore in the output file).

**Note!** Beware the special use of splitters! Especially if you want to use special characters that have a "perl" split
meaning. They need to be escaped by a leading \\.

Examples of splitters before filtering (end result will remain the ORIGINAL unsplit line!):
