New add-on tool to MDLP World-22 calculator

Alex_Axe from Molgen forum announced the release of a new tool Oracle_AdMix4.
Basically, you can think of this tool as an useful add-on that extends the Oracle two-population results into four-population format.

Currently the tool support only DOS/Windows platform, and its usage is quite straightforward. The current distribution of  Oracle_AdMix4 includes the required file (data.txt) with the frequencies of 22 components in each of reference populations. The second file - input.txt - is the one you need to modify in order to use the tool on your own World-22 calculator results:

30     {Quantity of output results}
1,5    {Threshold of components to ignore noise} 
0,5    {Threshold of method to ignore noise}
2      {Power parameter for weighted method or zero for least-squares method}   
0      Pygmy
15     West-Asian
0      North-European-Mesolithic
0      Indo-Tibetan
0      Mesoamerican
0      Arctic-Amerind
0      South-America_Amerind
5      Indian
0      North-Siberean
25     Atlantic_Mediterranean_Neolithic
5      Samoedic
0      Indo-Iranian
0      East-Siberean
40     North-East-European
0      South-African
0      North-Amerind
0      Sub-Saharian
0      East-South-Asian
10     Near_East
0      Melanesian
0      Paleo-Siberian
0      Austronesian

All you need to do is to change the default values of components with your own results of World-22 calculator.

The output should appear in the following format:

1 Mordovian+Russian_South+Swedish+Swedish @ 20,749639
2 Estonian+Mordovian+Swedish+Swedish @ 23,267935
3 Finnish-North+Mordovian+Polish+Swedish @ 23,656645
4 Finnish-North+Mordovian+Russian_South+Swedish @ 23,83736
5 Estonian+Finnish-South+Mordovian+Swedish @ 24,192354
6 Mordovian+Polish+Swedish+Swedish @ 24,846391
7 Estonian+German-North+Mordovian+Swedish @ 25,176036
