Rad; I can't access the example you're describing but if the code is useful as an example that's great. It's multiple years out of date now and will be slow and inefficient so is not suited for use in real life work. It will work fine on any size read but won't scale well.
If you want something production level, a tool like AlienTrimmer (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23912058), Cutadapt (http://code.google.com/p/cutadapt/) or Scythe (https://github.com/vsbuffalo/scythe) are better suggestions.
Thanks much and hope this helps.
Hi Brad,
Thanks a lot for these recommendations

Hi Brad,
I am running a test of your code for adaptor trimming (http://coderscrowd.com/app/codes/view/224), the unit test is Ok. I don't see though why this code would not work for long reads. In the description of the code you mentioned that the code is designed for short read sequencing, can you please enlighten me on this ?
Thanks
Rad
