Description-en: Test data for HTSlib
HTSlib is an implementation of a unified C library for accessing common file
formats, such as SAM (Sequence Alignment/Map), CRAM and VCF (Variant Call
Format), used for high-throughput sequencing data, and is the core library
used by samtools and bcftools. HTSlib only depends on zlib. It is known to be
compatible with gcc, g++ and clang.
.
HTSlib implements a generalized BAM (binary SAM) index, with file extension
‘csi’ (coordinate-sorted index). The HTSlib file reader first looks for the
new index and then for the old if the new index is absent.
.
This package contains test files and scripts for the HTSlib.
