Add a feature to makewindows that the initial window size and the initial step size can be specified.
I need to get tiling windows representing rounded coordinates at some digits.
That is, rounded coordinates at a digit are the boundaries of target windows.
For example:
Currently, this kind of windows may be obtained by
bedtools makewindows
,bedtools shift
, concatenate short intervals for each chromosome, andbedtools sort
. However, the target windows can be obtained by onlybedtools makewindows
with some modifications, and it will be efficient (sorry, but I have not benchmarked).In this pull request, I introduced "initial window size" (-iw) option and "initial step size" (-is) option. Using the options, you can use
bedtools makewindows
as follows:I'd like to share the changes.
