    Hi Ben,

    That's an interesting find. Alke's filter-stage-1.prl script should be better at reporting when it cannot find a dependent program. I added the following code to the script:

    use File::Which;
    unless ( which( $TRF_COMMAND ) && which( $NSEG_COMMAND ) )
    {
    die "ERROR: RepeatScout script filter-stage-1.prl cannot find 'trf' or 'nseg' programs in the user's path!\n";
    }

    This should at least produce an error message that will indicate something went wrong. I don't see why you would need to get rid of the "$ENV{'TRF_COMMAND'} ||" portion as that is simply a conditional statement which allows you to have environmental variables set to point to the programs location. Perhaps you have these environmental variables set and set incorrectly? Perhaps when you ran the program you hadn't updated the shell's path in memory ( using rehash command )? In any case, I am glad you got it working. I will push this change to filter-stage-1.prl out in the next release of RepeatScout.

      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
