Hi Nick,
I did something like that once with msInspect. As far as I can
remember the msInspect command for this task is '--filter' (do not use
the --filterpepxml command, it is not meant for what you want to do).
I believe you can only search scores or peptide prophet prob to filter
your files.
Another way to do it with msInspect is to convert msInspect.tsv files
to pep.xml. Since the msInspect.tsv is very similar to the .xls output
from peptide prophet, you could use it to convert your .xls files
to .pep.xml. All you have to do is to change the column positions on
your .xls file in order to mock the msInspect.tsv format. The
advantage here is that you can use TPP (which has more filter options)
to filter your interact.pep.xml and then export to .xls.
