NAME

fq_deinterleave - de-interleave paired FASTQ files

VERSION

This documentation refers to v0.202

SYNOPSIS

fq_deinterleave [--check] reads1 reads2 < interleaved_reads

DESCRIPTION

A simple script to de-interleave (i.e. split) an interleaved FASTQ input into two paired FASTQ files. Interleaved data is read from STDIN, and the names of the two output files are the two required arguments.

OPTIONS

--1

Name of output file for forward reads (required)

--2

Name of output file for reverse reads (required)

--in

Name of input file to read from (instead of default STDIN)

--check

Check each pair of input reads to make sure names match (slower but more rigorous)

--force

Force overwrite of output files even if they exist

--norename

Do not strip /1 and /2 suffixes from read IDs. These are generally added during interleaving and should be stripped off, but setting this flag will preserve the read IDs exactly.

CAVEATS AND BUGS

As yet undiscovered. Please reports bugs to the GitHub repository issue tracker.
