**What it does**

This tool renames the sequence identifiers in a FASTQ/A file.

.. class:: infomark

Use this tool at the beginning of your workflow, as a way to keep the original sequence (before trimming, clipping, barcode-removal, etc).

**Example**

The following Solexa-FASTQ file::

    @CSHL_4_FC042GAMMII_2_1_517_596
    GGTCAATGATGAGTTGGCACTGTAGGCACCATCAAT
    +CSHL_4_FC042GAMMII_2_1_517_596
    40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 38 40 40 40 40 40 14 40 40 40 40 40 36 40 13 14 24 24 9 24 9 40 10 10 15 40
  
Renamed to **nucleotides sequence**::

    @GGTCAATGATGAGTTGGCACTGTAGGCACCATCAAT
    GGTCAATGATGAGTTGGCACTGTAGGCACCATCAAT
    +GGTCAATGATGAGTTGGCACTGTAGGCACCATCAAT
    40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 38 40 40 40 40 40 14 40 40 40 40 40 36 40 13 14 24 24 9 24 9 40 10 10 15 40

Renamed to **numeric counter**::

    @1
    GGTCAATGATGAGTTGGCACTGTAGGCACCATCAAT
    +1
    40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 38 40 40 40 40 40 14 40 40 40 40 40 36 40 13 14 24 24 9 24 9 40 10 10 15 40
