Thanks! Do you know what the solution is? The reads were generated by the BBTools simulator randomreads.sh) and for some reason it generates reads with names that aren't compatible with samtools.
Is there some way to get around this in samtools?
Or a quick fix to shorten the read names without losing the info in them?
