The software reads the beginning of an input file to determine if it is SAM/BAM.  To determine the format (SAM/BAM) of the output file, the software checks the output file's extension. If the extension is ".bam" it writes a BAM file, otherwise it writes a SAM file.

This executable is built using [[C++ Library: libStatGen]].
+
The software reads the beginning of an input file to determine if it is SAM/BAM.  To determine the format (SAM/BAM) of the output file, the software checks the output file's extension.  If the extension is ".bam" it writes a BAM file, otherwise it writes a SAM file.
   −
Just running ./bam will print the Usage information for the bam executable.
