Trim a fixed number of bases of read ends #19

Thanks for a great tool,

I was wondering if there is a way to trim a fixed number of bases of each read end, even if no adaptor sequence was discovered. Such a flag/feature could be useful when trimming 1D and 1D^2 reads from SQK-LSK308 sequencing runs.

Cheers Jon

Although I agree it's easier to have everything in the same tool, the feature you request can be done using NanoFilt...

Okey, thank you. I will try that tool instead!
