Hi Yifeng,
Can you post one of the headers (preferably the one from the first file
that you specified in the merge command)? Am I correct in assuming that you
didn't use the "-h inh.sam" option?
In general, this error means that there's something about the header file
that samtools is trying to write to the merged file that it can't quite
parse correctly.
Best,
Devon
