The .islands file is only generated by mauveAligner, and not by
progressiveMauve.

The .bbcols file records the alignment columns that are predicted to be
part of larger conserved segments among each group of genomes.

The first column is the block ID, counting from 0 in the order that
blocks appear in the XMFA file. The 2nd column is the alignment column
where a conserved segment begins within the block. The 3rd column is the
length of the conserved region (in alignment columns). The 4th and
successive columns record the genome IDs participating in the conserved
block. These start at 0 and count up in the order that genomes were
input to the aligner on the command-line.

Hope that helps,
-Aaron
