DUMPC...HEADER(1)

💖 dumpContigsFromHeader 💖

okay bestie, welcome to dumpContigsFromHeader — she's a VCF transformation from the vcflib girlies, and she's here to do exactly one thing and do it cute. 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

dumpContigsFromHeader — the little icon that dumps contigs straight outta the header. no cap. 🧬

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

dumpContigsFromHeader file

that's it. one argument. she's low maintenance, unlike your ex. 🙈

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Dump contigs from header. 💖

like... literally that. she reads the ##contig= lines and hands you the goods. it's giving extraction, it's giving transformation, it's giving main character energy. 👑

---

✨ EXAMPLES ✨

okay so here's the vibe. Example:

**dumpContigsFromHeader** samples/scaffold612.vcf

and your input file is looking like:

##contig=<ID=scaffold4,length=1524>
##contig=<ID=scaffold12,length=56895>
(...)

and then. THEN. 🥁 output:

scaffold4       1524
scaffold12      56895
(...)

see how she just... peeled the ID= and the length= out of there and set them side by side? obsessed. that's the whole trick. ate and left no crumbs 🍓

Type: transformation
