Description:

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.
