The program also contains a set of routines identical to those used to create and search for nucleotide weight matrices, but which deal instead with dinucleotide weight matrices. Most motif searches require far less user input than that shown above, where we have tried to show the scope of the methods. Although the program contains hardwired motifs we expect most sites that use the programs to accumulate their own libraries of motifs and patterns, which users can employ by simply knowing the names of the corresponding files.
