Common substrings? #42

Description

@BjornFJohansson

Hi, I am looking for a faster alternative to a common substrings algorithm for my python bioinformatics package pydna.

I currently use a Python implementation of the Kärkkäinen Sanders suffix array algorithm, mostly for predicting homologous recombination between DNA molecules. This is surprisingly fast, but profiling revealed that it is still a bottleneck.

My background is not CS, so I wonder if anyone could show me how to use pydivsufsort to get all common substrings between two strings longer than some given cutoff.
