To celebrate 400 stars ⭐️on GitHub, Cutadapt 4.1 ✂️is now available. It can find rightmost adapter occurrences (closing a 5 year old issue) and allows you to use search parameters together with "file:a.fa" cutadapt.readthedocs.io/en/s…

Proud to present our cover art created by @Ella_Maru studio on the March issue of @NatureNeuro! We tried to illustrate how genetic barcodes can be used to reveal the relations between “simple” progenitor cells and “complex” differentiated cells in the brain. Take a look 👀
Our March issue is now live! nature.com/neuro/volumes/25/…

Cutadapt 3.5 released; it can write statistics in JSON format: cutadapt.readthedocs.io/en/s… Pro tip: Use jq to extract the info you need, such as the number of found adapters: jq '.adapters_read1[0].total_matches' file.cutadapt.json

Now comes the fun part: I’ll finally remove colorspace support (happy you if you don’t know what that is) and switch to Python 3 only for the next release. #Python3
