+    This tool is very useful when you have paired-end stranded RNA-seq.
+    Using this tool prior to a bedtools genome coverage allow to have strand specific coverage using both mates.
+    It uses samtools to convert input to sam format and then awk to modify the flag "reverse strand" for the second mate of pairs.
