Dear developers,
Can VeryFastTree handle a modified alphabet rather than either nucleotide or amino acid alphabets?
If yes, how can it be performed?
Thanks in advance.

VeryFastTree is built upon the algorithms of FastTree, designed for protein and nucleotide sequences. Introducing a new alphabet would indeed necessitate significant changes, depending on the nature of the modifications you have in mind. Nevertheless, if you have a proposal for such a modification, we are open to discussing its feasibility and potential implementation. Please provide more details on the specific modifications you're considering, and we can explore the possibilities further.
