Seealso:
       picopore-realtime
              monitors a directory for new reads and compresses them in real time

       picopore-test
              compresses to temporary files and checks that all datasets  and  attributes  are  equal  (lossless
              modes only)

       picopore-rename
              renames groups and datasets within FAST5 files

   positionalarguments:
       input  list of directories or fast5 files to shrink

   optionalarguments:-h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       --mode {lossless,deep-lossless,raw}
              choose compression mode

       --revert
              reverts files to original size (lossless modes only)

       --fastq, --no-fastq
              retain FASTQ data (raw mode only) (Default: --fastq)

       --summary, --no-summary

              show version number and exit

       -y     skip confirm step

       -t INT, --threads INT
              number of threads (Default: 1)

       --prefix STR
              add prefix to output files to prevent overwrite

       --skip-root, --no-skip-root
              ignore files in root input directories for albacore realtime compression (Default: --no-skip-root)

       --print-every INT
              print a dot every approximately INT files, or -1 to silence (Default: 100)
