  Description     : Merges overlapping "long" DNA reads into a consensus sequences
 lamassemble merges overlapping "long" DNA reads into a consensus
 sequence (i.e. assembles them). It works OK when the number of reads
 is less than a thousand or so.
 The merging is not always accurate. In particular, if the reads come
 from huge tandem repeats, wrong parts of the reads may get merged.
