Overview

About: Convenience tool for concatenating VCF files. In the basic mode it does not

do anything fancy except for a sanity check that all files have the same columns. When run with the -s option, it will perform a partial merge sort, looking at a limited number of open jobs simultaneously.

Options

-f, --files <file>

Read the list of files from a file.

-s, --merge-sort <int>

Allow small overlaps in N consecutive files.

-h, -?, --help
