index file of hg19 for bwa

[carolW]

Hi
As it takes time to construct the index file of hg19 for bwa, I just wondered if it the index file could be downloaded from internet.

bwa index -a bwtsw -p hg19 hg19.fa

Look forward to your reply,

Carol

It's pity that they are not compressed!

What do you mean they are not compressed? These are all "tag.gz" compressed archives.
