prinseqplusplus

PRINSEQ++ can be used to filter, reformat or trim genomic and metagenomic sequence data. It is 5X faster than prinseq-lite.pl and uses less RAM thanks to the use of multi-threading and the cboost libraries. It can read and write compressed (gzip) files, drastically reducing the use of hard drive.

This module requires that PRINSEQ++ has been run with the flag -VERBOSE 1. It uses the log file name as the sample name.
