Good day,

According to the documentation, I wouldn't think that substr or strsplit would 
work on a BStringSet, but substr does.

> IDs
  A BStringSet instance of length 5
    width seq
[1]    61 D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:1816:1998 1:N:0:TCCGGAGA+ATAGAGGC
[2]    61 D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:2113:1989 1:N:0:TCCGGAGA+ATAGAGGC
[3]    61 D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:2703:1986 1:N:0:TCCGGAGA+ATAGAGGC
[4]    61 D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:3255:1979 1:N:0:TCCGGAGA+ATAGAGGC
[5]    61 D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:4525:1995 1:N:0:TCCGGAGA+ATAGAGGC
> substr(IDs, 1, 37)
[1] "D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:1816:1998"
[2] "D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:2113:1989"
[3] "D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:2703:1986"
[4] "D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:3255:1979"
[5] "D00626:168:C9CWMANXX:1:1105:4525:1995"
> strsplit(IDs, ' ')
Error in strsplit(IDs, " ") : non-character argument

I think that both of these functions shouldn't work or both should work, to be 
consistent.
