multiple input file types

Hi Wouter,

would there be a possibility of including multiple input file types (eg for 1 sample to include both the sequencing summary file (--summary) and bam (--bam) file), instead of running them separately. Many thanks!

Hi Cherlyn,

I wonder why you want to do that. Then you would get every read twice? It is also problematic in the sense that each file contains different information. The sequencing summary would give time information, while the bam would give a percent identity. That information would not be available for all 'reads' in the dataset.

In short, it is currently not supported in NanoPlot. If you can elaborate on why this would be beneficial, I can see if we can find a way around this.

Best,
Wouter
