How do I use pipes to map reads with bowtie and convert to BAM without the 
intermediate files?
>From the following steps, I am interested only in 'reads_sorted.bam' file:
#run bowtie to align the reads
bowtie -S ebwt reads.fastq reads.sam
#convert the SAM file to BAM  
samtools view -bS -o reads.bam reads.sam 
#sort the alignment 
samtools sort reads.bam reads_sorted
#index the alignment 
samtools index reads_sorted.bam

Thank you
Joseph Dhahbi
