    Bfast match .bmf? file - anybody seen .bmf? before

    Hi everyone

    I've used BFAST (0.7.0a) before on our institute computing cluster successfully before, however, after running 'bfast match' last night I have a '.bmf?' file instead of the normal '.bmf' file.

    Has anybody else observed this?

    bfast match seems to have executed correctly, my .fastq file is 2.3GB and the .bmf? file is 1.3GB.

    I am analysing SOLiD whole genome resequencing data of yeast strain.

    bfast match output below (I've #'d out some of the path details on purpose):

    Problem solved.

    The windows carriage return creeping into my script... was using notepad++ on my linux desktop.

    .. lesson: use vim/gedit!

      Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
      by SEQadmin2



      Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

      Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

      New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
      by SEQadmin2


      Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

      We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
