NAME¶

bam2bed_gnuParallel - manual page for bam2bed_gnuParallel 2.4.20+dfsg

SYNOPSIS¶

bam2bed_gnuParallel [--help] [--clean] <input-indexed-bam-file> [output-bed-file]

DESCRIPTION¶

Pass in the name of an indexed BAM file to create a sorted BED file using GNU Parallel.

(stdin isn't supported through this wrapper script.)

Add --clean to remove <input-indexed-bam-file> after turning it into BED.

You can pass in the name of the output bed archive to be created. Otherwise, the output will have the same name as the input file, with an additional

'.bed' ending.

If the input file ends with '.bam', that will be stripped off.
