how to average bw files?

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hi,

I tried to run the following command to average bw files and output a bw file. But the resulting bw file is not a binary file. How do I generate an averaged bw?

wiggletools write test_comb_wiggletool.bw mean test_rep*_spike.bw

WiggleTools writes the output in uncompressed wiggle format. See this related issue for a solution: #17 (comment)

Ah...I see. Thanks for your response.
