SYNOPSIS

blt gff3-to-bed < file.gff3 > file.bed

DESCRIPTION

blt gff3-to-bed converts GFF3 input to BED output. Currently it generates 6-column BED output with scores set to 0.

Note that GFF3 contains roughly the same information as BED and is generally considered a more capable format, so converting from GFF3 to BED is normally not desirable. blt gff3-to-bed is provided as a stop-gap for working with tools that don't yet support the GTF or GFF3 formats.

EXAMPLES

blt gff3-to-bed < file.gff3 > file.bed
