Okay, done. Coverage:

And output:

Still failing to assemble.
I must say that these results surprised me, because the minimum coverage from
Coverage Distribution has bumped up to 96 now.
> Also, what is the read length ?
Reads were generated using this command:
../readSimulator/VirtualNextGenSequencer tests/phix/phix_genome.fasta 0 200
10 500000 50 phix_500k_1.fasta phix_500k_2.fasta
In other words, no sequence errors, 200bp outer distance (SD = 10bp), 50bp
read length. I chose those outer distance / read length values (but SD was a
guess) because they are the same as the parameters used on a human genome
sequence that was done at MPI a month or so ago (which included a phiX lane).
I guess I could choose the reads from that as input, but then I'd be testing
a different thing, because those reads would likely have errors.

You're simulating errors / SNPs (substitution rate = 0.005), which is a
different test from the one I'm doing.
