Convert FASTQ files

Here is a Perl script for FASTQ conversion. I didn't make it. Just copy and paste this into a text file, but save with the .pl extension. If you already have perl installed and in your path, just type 

fastqconversion.pl   command   infile.txt


#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

# Author: lh3

use warnings;
use Getopt::Std;

my $usage = qq(
Usage:   fastqconversion.pl <command> <in.txt>

Command: scarf2std      Convert SCARF format to the standard/Sanger FASTQ
         fqint2std      Convert FASTQ-int format to the standard/Sanger FASTQ
         sol2std        Convert Solexa/Illumina FASTQ to the standard FASTQ
         fa2std         Convert FASTA to the standard FASTQ
         fq2fa          Convert various FASTQ-like format to FASTA

FASTQ format is first used in the Sanger Institute, and therefore
we take the Sanger specification as the standard FASTQ. Although
Solexa/Illumina reads file looks pretty much like the standard
FASTQ, they are different in that the qualities are scaled
differently. In the quality string, if you can see a character
with its ASCII code higher than 90, probably your file is in the
Solexa/Illumina format.

Sometimes we also use an integer, instead of a single character,
to explicitly show the qualities. In that case, negative
qualities indicates that Solexa/Illumina qualities are used.
