Feel free to send a pull request. You may add an option like --output=tax_id.

I used the option --output=tax_id, it just changed the name of output file to "tax_id"

Could you use ncbitax2lin --nodes-file taxdump/nodes.dmp --names-file taxdump/names.dmp? Or could you share your code?

@Xueliang24 , sorry for confusion. I meant --output-tax-id instead, but it isn't implemented yet, so not expected to work.
