The generated GFF file has no valid format

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Hi,

I am trying to use this software, v1.6.1. Apparently it works fine, but the generated GFF file has not the valid format because don't have in the first line:

##gff-version 3

The .gff file begins with the data, it seems the header is missing. I used the following page to verify the file
http://genometools.org/cgi-bin/gff3validator.cgi

Thanks,

you can simply add the header to the liftoff output and it should work fine with downstream analysis tools which require the header to be there.
