[-h] = This helpful help screen.
[-f N] = First base to keep. Default is 1 (=first base).
[-l N] = Last base to keep. Default is entire read.
[-t N] = Trim N nucleotides from the end of the read.
'-t' can not be used with '-l' and '-f'.
[-m MINLEN] = With [-t], discard reads shorter than MINLEN.
[-z] = Compress output with GZIP.
[-i INFILE] = FASTA/Q input file. default is STDIN.
[-o OUTFILE] = FASTA/Q output file. default is STDOUT.
