+Typically it is used to find significant enrichment or depletion of microRNA
+or siRNA seed sequences from microarray expression data.  Sylamer is extremely
+fast and can be applied to genome-wide datasets with ease.  Results are
+plotted in terms of a significance landscape plot.  These plots show
+significance profiles for each word studied across the sorted genelist.")
