Automatic quality scale detection #90

Open uros-sipetic opened 6 years ago

Hi, this is somewhat similar to the idea of automatically detecting strandedness (as in this issue https://github.com/deweylab/RSEM/issues/85)

So, instead of asking the user to specify quality scores (phred 33/64 or solexa, or no quality), this is again something that can be automatically inferred (https://www.biostars.org/p/63225/)

Usually I (and possibly others) try and do this pipelines with tools that require this info (like RSEM), so I was just thinking if in the next release these could be added - seems easier than detecting strandedness for example
