"""Wrapper for SignalP v3.0 for use in Galaxy.

This script takes exactly fives command line arguments:
 * the organism type (euk, gram+ or gram-)
 * length to truncate sequences to (integer)
 * number of threads to use (integer)
 * an input protein FASTA filename
 * output tabular filename.

It then calls the standalone SignalP v3.0 program (not the webservice)
requesting the short output (one line per protein) using both NN and HMM
for predictions.

First major feature is cleaning up the output. The raw output from SignalP
v3.0 looks like this (21 columns space separated):

# SignalP-NN euk predictions                                   	                # SignalP-HMM euk predictions
# name                Cmax  pos ?  Ymax  pos ?  Smax  pos ?  Smean ?  D     ? 	# name      !  Cmax  pos ?  Sprob ?

In order to make it easier to use in Galaxy, this wrapper script reformats
this to use tab separators. Also it removes the redundant truncated name
column, and assigns unique column names in the header:

#ID	NN_Cmax_score	NN_Cmax_pos	NN_Cmax_pred	NN_Ymax_score	NN_Ymax_pos	NN_Ymax_pred	NN_Smax_score	NN_Smax_pos	NN_Smax_pred	NN_Smean_score	NN_Smean_pred	NN_D_score	NN_D_pred	HMM_bang	HMM_Cmax_score	HMM_Cmax_pos	HMM_Cmax_pred	HMM_Sprob_score	HMM_Sprob_pred

The second major feature is overcoming SignalP's built in limit of 4000
sequences by breaking up the input FASTA file into chunks. This also allows
us to pre-trim the sequences since SignalP only needs their starts.

The third major feature is taking advantage of multiple cores (since SignalP
v3.0 itself is single threaded) by using the individual FASTA input files to
run multiple copies of TMHMM in parallel. I would normally use Python's
multiprocessing library in this situation but it requires at least Python 2.6
and at the time of writing Galaxy still supports Python 2.4.
