Failure to run the interactive mode of ModDotPlot v.0.9.9

[Wangeos]

Hi Alex,

Thanks for developing the tool!

I am trying to run the interactive mode of ModDotPlot v.0.9.9 on a single chromosome using the following command:

moddotplot interactive -f /home/user/reference/chr1.fa

But I have got the following error using ModDotPlot built from the GitHub repo:

v0.9.9

Running ModDotPlot in interactive mode

Traceback (most recent call last):

I have tried ModDotPlot v.0.9.9 installed using pip as well, but got the same error. Either running it on WSL or a Ubuntu server produce the same error as well.

However, this code can be run under ModDotPlot v.0.9.8 without any issues.

Are there any solutions on this?

Best regards
