Hello,

 

I am a regular user of the Intersection feature on the Table Browser.  I
find it to be very useful and accurate.  One thing I think would be very
simple to add is an optional gap between the datasets.  I often find it
useful to know whether things are within 500bp or some other distance to
know whether there is a potential regulatory interaction, even if there
is no base overlap.  Currently, the only way I can see to do this is to
artificially modify my .bed files to add my desired gap on the ends.
Then I do the intersection and afterwards remove the extra bp I had
added.  I think it would be a feature that others would use as well.  

 

Thanks,
