+Add options `\-\-n_mismatch`, `\-\-fastq_minqual`, and

+as mismatches in alignments, which may be useful to get sensible
+alignments for sequences with lots of N's. By default N's are counted
+as matches. Both the scoring and the counting of matches are
+affected. The new `\-\-fastq_minqual` option for the `fastq_filter`
+and `fastx_filter` commands will discard sequences with any bases with
+a quality scores below the given value. The new
