Poretools on mac #120

Hello, I have installed the poretools on mac and i tried converting the fast5 to fasta. The terminal executes "poretools fasta 'folder with the fast5 files'". I don't receive any message after the execution of the command, but also no errors. There aren't any new files created in the folder with the fast5 files. Are the fasta files saved somewhere else?

I am having a similar issue except a file is made but there is nothing within the text file. I find that this is only an issue with a large number of files. If i have ~50 files, then I get an output in a file. However, several thousand files results in execution with no output contained within the file. I am directing to a directory to bypass the Argument list too long issue, and the command appears to run.
