              binary version: 2.4.26 (creates archive version: 2.2.0) authors:  Alex Reynolds and
              Shane Neph

       USAGE: starch [ --note="foo bar..." ]

              [  --bzip2  |  --gzip ] [ --omit-signature ] [ --report-progress=N ] [ --header ] [
              <unique-tag> ] <bed-file>

              * BED input must be sorted lexicographically  (e.g.,  using  BEDOPS  sort-bed).   *
              Please  use '-' to indicate reading BED data from standard input.  * Output must be
              directed to a regular file.  * The bzip2 compression type makes  smaller  archives,
              while gzip extracts

              faster.

              Process                                                                       Flags
              --------------------------------------------------------------------------

       --bzip2 | --gzip

              generate signature).

       --report-progress=N
              Report compression progress every N  elements  per  chromosome  to  standard  error
              stream (optional)

       --header
              Support  BED  input with custom UCSC track, SAM or VCF headers, or generic comments
              (optional).

       <unique-tag>
              Optional. Specify unique identifier for transformed data.
