Deduplication Probe Generator

# Interstitial probe generator

The deduplication probe generator is a way to merge closely positioned or overlapping probes together to reduce the complexity of a probe set.

## Options

- The starting probe list. This is the set of probes which will be merged to form the new probe set
- The maximum distance over which probes will be merged. If set to zero then only overlapping probes will be merged
- Whether to merge strands separately. If selected then only probes with the same strand setting will be merged. If this is not set then any probes will be merged and merged probes will only retain a direction if all of the probes in the set had the same direction.
