Are there limitations on the symbols which can be used?

I've compiled the code and try it out on some data I have. However, I get the error:

[ERROR]: Assertion failed in /tmp/psac/include/check_suffix_array.hpp:262

I don't get this error when using the random data supplied in this package. Are there some limitations regarding what symbols/encodings/characters can be used? E.g. at the start I see

Alphabet: {sigma=200, l=8, A=[ ,  , !, ", #, $, %, &, ', (, ), *, +, ,, -, ., /, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, :, ;, <, =, >, ?, @, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, [, \, ], ^, _, `, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z, {, |, }, ~, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ]}  

Does this mean that only these characters can be used?

Can you share your input file so I can try to reproduce the problem? Thanks

Thanks, find the file attached below! IDK, maybe I did some mistake when compiling, looks pretty innocuous to me.

Maybe it's a matter of encodings. What encodings does the program expect? Thanks!

The default alphabet implementation expects ascii (one byte per character). There's some support for 2byte alphabets and integer alphabets, but I don't think I tested that very well.
