[Bio-Linux] help with denoise wrapper

Hi Rowena,

The sffinfo tool is part of the Roche toolkit and is proprietary so we
can't redistribute it, but in fact Qiime can do the flowgram
preprocessing for you using process_sff.py.  I think the command you
need is:

process_sff.py -f -i SternA_total/EukA7

Any joy?

Cheers,

TIM
