Usage:
  SpecLibCreator <options>

Options (mandatory options marked with '*'):
  -info <file>*          Holds id, peptide, retention time etc. (valid formats: 'csv')
  -itemseperator <char>   Separator between items. e.g. , (default: ',')
  -itemenclosed <bool>   'true' or 'false' if true every item is enclosed e.g. '$peptide$,$run$... (default: 
                         'false') (valid: 'true', 'false')
  -spec <file>*          Spectra (valid formats: 'mzData', 'mzXML')
  -out <file>*           Output MSP formatted spectra library (valid formats: 'msp')
                         
Common TOPP options:
  -ini <file>            Use the given TOPP INI file
  -threads <n>           Sets the number of threads allowed to be used by the TOPP tool (default: '1')
  -write_ini <file>      Writes the default configuration file
