16 Description: generic indexer for TAB-delimited genome position files
17 Tabix indexes files where some columns indicate sequence coordinates: name
18 (usually a chromosme), start and stop. The input data file must be position
19 sorted and compressed by bgzip (provided in this package), which has a gzip
20 like interface. After indexing, tabix is able to quickly retrieve data lines by
21 chromosomal coordinates. Fast data retrieval also works over network if an URI
22 is given as a file name.
