+#### a) Generating a Wiggle file
A wiggle plot representing the expected number of reads overlapping
-each position in the genome can be generated from the sorted genome
-BAM file output. To generate the wiggle plot, run the 'rsem-bam2wig'
-program on the 'sample_name.genome.sorted.bam' file.
+each position in the genome/transcript set can be generated from the
+sorted genome/transcript BAM file output. To generate the wiggle
+plot, run the 'rsem-bam2wig' program on the
+'sample_name.genome.sorted.bam'/'sample_name.transcript.sorted.bam' file.
Usage:
- rsem-bam2wig bam_input wig_output wiggle_name
+ rsem-bam2wig sorted_bam_input wig_output wiggle_name
-bam_input: sorted bam file
+sorted_bam_input: sorted bam file
wig_output: output file name, e.g. output.wig
wiggle_name: the name the user wants to use for this wiggle plot
