Dear Wolfgang,

readPath and qualPath specify the paths to the directory containing the
.fna and .qual files rather than the paths to the files themselves.

Try:

experimentPath <- "/path/to/directory/containing/fna/and/qual/files"
readPath <- experimentPath
qualPath <- experimentPath

reads <- read454(RochePath(experimentPath=experimentPath,
readPath=readPath, qualPath=qualPath))

If only experimentPath is specified all sub-directories of
<experimentPath> matching run are searched for read/quality files.

Regards,
Michael

Dear list,
I'm trying to read some 454 data into ShortRead, but I'm having some difficulties. Basically I have a FASTA concatenated file with all the sequence reads and a FASTA-like file with the Phred-quailty scores, the identifyiers for each read from both files match. Here I'm testing a small sub-set of the reads, so memory etc shouldn't be an issue. Based on the ShortRead Vignette I thought could do the job and then I realized that there are 454-dedicated functions. But so far I didn't get either of them of them to work.
