Hi Tim,

As I posted on the tophat github issue tracker 
(https://github.com/infphilo/tophat/issues/18), it looks like the 
upgrade solved the problems I was having. Thanks very much for your help!

Just as an aside, I don't receive replies to my messages on the email 
list (though I do receive the digest emails). Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks,

Josh
