You can simply use -aformat (if there is only one alignment output there 
is no need for the parameter number 3) to avoid confusion when you tray 
another application with a different number of parameters.

We are also happy to add new alignment formats if anyone needs a 
different output format. Any new alignment format will be available to 
all alignment outputs (but can be declared as only for pairwise/multiple 
or nucleotide/protein alignments)

Happy to be able to help.
