Tools for nucleotide sequence alignments in the SAM format

http://www.htslib.org/

SAM (Sequence Alignment/Map) is a flexible generic format for storing
nucleotide sequence alignment.
SAM Tools provide various utilities for manipulating alignments in the
SAM format, including sorting, merging, indexing and generating
alignments in a per-position format.

Version: 1.15.1
