I am sure it is a very simple question and has been answered here, however I could not find it and has googled it too. I used to use a web page where you add the mapping score after BWA/ Bowtie 2 alignments like 16, 274 -----. it will tell me whether reads are uniquely aligned, one mate aligned aligned to reverse strand and so on. However I am not finding that page Could some one point me to that URL I have spent lot of time searching this. I promise to book mark the site.
Thanks
