Does QoRTs can take more than one fastq files ? #70

Hello,

I want to run QoRTs for my samples. I have several fastq files for each sample, as the sequencing as been run on several lines. Do I have to merge the files or QoRTs accepts several files ? If it does accept several files, is there a specific command line to use ?

Thanks, Kind regards,

Pauline

There are a number of options here. The easiest is to simply concatenate the files using the cat command:

<( cat file1.fa file2.fa ... )

Use the above instead of a file name. Bash will automatically hand qorts a "file" with the fastas concatenated.
