rnazBEDstats.pl reads a BED formatted annotation file and prints
some basic statistics. It counts the single annotations (``items") but
also the bases covered by these items. ``Item bases" means the number
of bases that are covered by the items (overlapping regions are not
counted). ``Item total" is simply the sum of all items (overlapping
regions are counted). Important: The BED file must be sorted for
this program to work. You can use rnazBEDsort.pl for this task.
# rnazBEDstats.pl some.bed
Sorts the file some.bed and prints statistics for it.
