Is there a way to use VFC.idx file (other than for viewing)?
I have a large (42 Gig) VCF and associated VCF.idx - both generated by GATK. I have some simple questions about this VCF like how many variants are in it? How many of them are on CHR1, 2, ... etc? Is there a particular variant (KRAS G13D) in this VCF?
Is there some way to answer these questions without having to open it in IGV? Clearly this data exists within the idx file. Right?
