Computer platform(s): 
SGI
Location: 
The binary is located at /usr/local/bin/lard.

LARD's distribution is located at /usr/local/fbscapp/LARDv2.2.
Access: 
Local account on SGI systems at ABCC is required to run LARD.

To use it:

where [parameters] are the parameters of the program
(described in the manual) and [sequences] is the input file
containing sequences in PHILIP format.
