Minimac3 can handle both VCF files or <font face=Courier>M3VCF</font> files as input for the reference panel. The program can itself identify the type of file, and no handle is necessary for that. <font face=Courier>M3VCF</font> files are customized files created by Minimac3 (possibly in some previous run) that stores large reference panels in a compact form so as to save memory and computation time involved in reading large files. <font face=Courier>M3VCF</font> files must be generated in some previous run of Minimac3 and can be saved and used in later runs for faster loading of data. See section on [[#M3VCF Files| <font face=Courier>M3VCF</font>]] files and [[#Examples|examples]] below on how to use them.
