Please take a look at the following patch. I had to make the following changes to be able to get ribopicker work the Galaxy wrapper as without it a "-p destination: Broken pipe" message was output to the stderr preventing the Galaxy wrapper from working. The wrapper can be checked out from "hg clone http://malex@toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/repos/malex/ribopicker".
