BCF Tools

[mastal]

If it is installed on your computer, typing bcftools at the commandline prompt should give you something like this:

$ bcftools 

Program: bcftools (Tools for data in the VCF/BCF formats)
Version: 0.1.17-dev (r973:277)

Usage:   bcftools <command> <arguments>

Command: view      print, extract, convert and call SNPs from BCF
         index     index BCF
         cat       concatenate BCFs
         ld        compute all-pair r^2
         ldpair    compute r^2 between requested pairs

Otherwise, have a look in the samtools directory, there should be a subdirectory called bcftools.

Would anybody happen to know a link to where I can download BCF Tools?
