* Package name : libvcflib Version : 1.0.0~rc1 Upstream Author : Erik Garrison <erik.garri...@bc.edu> * URL : https://github.com/ekg/vcflib * License : MIT Programming Lang: C++ Description : C++ library for parsing and manipulating VCF files The Variant Call Format (VCF) is a flat-file, tab-delimited textual format intended to concisely describe reference-indexed variations between individuals. VCF provides a common interchange format for the description of variation in individuals and populations of samples, and has become the defacto standard reporting format for a wide array of genomic variant detectors. . vcflib provides methods to manipulate and interpret sequence variation as it can be described by VCF. It is both: . * an API for parsing and operating on records of genomic variation as it can be described by the VCF format, * and a collection of command-line utilities for executing complex manipulations on VCF files. Remark: This library is a precondition for the Debian Med target freebayes. It will be maintained at https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-med/libvcflib.git
