Support piping input from stdin

[jvollme]

Hi,
Does AlignGraph allow piping input reads from stdin or is it planned to implement that in the near future?
Your readme says AlignGraph only accepts PE-reads in fasta-format, but most commonly such reads will be in fastq format and stored as gzip or bzip2 compressed files. Piping from stdin would allow great flexibility to use these inputs without having to keep different file-formats on the server.

Hi, John,

Thank you for your feedback. The current AlignGraph can only support FASTA format file, but I will consider supporting more input types.

Best,
Bao
