The first column is the reference/contig id and the second its abundance.

The abundance is the number of bases mapped to a contig, divided by the length
of the contig. Reads mapping to *n* different locations are weighted 1/*n*.
of the contig. When a read maps to multiple locations, each of the *n* locations
is weighted 1/*n*. Note that this is in contrast to alignment mode, where by

(this can be changed with `-N`).

Further columns may be added to this table in future versions of strobealign.
