SYNOPSIS

       Quality trim solexa-Illumina sequence reads using user-defined thresholds.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
                 show this help message and exit

       -f SEQFILE, --sequence file=SEQFILE
                 Illumina sequence file - Output format from the 1G Genome Analyzer (_seq.txt):
