Qiime deblur denoise-16S

Hey @kedi! You have backslash (\) characters in your command, these are used to tell your shell that you are escaping the next character in the command. In the case of the QIIME 2 documentation, we use that escaping to allow us to split commands across many lines (so, we are escaping newlines). You have two options:

Split across many lines, with the escaping:

qiime deblur denoise-16S \
  --i-demultiplexed-seqs demux-filtered.qza \
  --p-trim-length 130 \
  --o-representative-sequences rep-seqs.qza \
  --o-table table.qza \
  --o-stats deblur-stats.qza

Or, make it all one line, without escaping:

qiime deblur denoise-16S --i-demultiplexed-seqs demux-filtered.qza --p-trim-length 130 --o-representative-sequences rep-seqs.qza --o-table table.qza --o-stats deblur-stats.qza

Hope that helps! :t_rex:
