+It parses and manipulates @acronym{MAF, multiple alignment format} files as
+well as more simple fasta files.  This package can be used to design a
+pipeline as a series of consecutive filters, each performing a dedicated
+analysis.  Many of the filters are available, from alignment cleaning to
+phylogeny reconstruction and population genetics analysis.  Despite various
+filtering options and format conversion tools, MafFilter can compute a wide
+range of statistics (phylogenetic trees, nucleotide diversity, inferrence of
+selection, etc.).")
