	I think that you make a mistake in the command line. You have a pileup
file called somthing like toto.msf. you must use :
	pretty toto.msf{*}
	This is to tell the pretty programm that he will find an msf formated
file and should take all the sequences in it.

					hope this help
					If not, more support by e-mail.
