gia is a free and open-source command-line tool for highly efficient
and scalable set operations on genomic interval data.
It is inspired by the open source command-line tools bedtools
and bedops and aims to be a drop-in
replacement to both.
gia is written in rust and distributed via cargo.
It is a command-line tool built on top of bedrs,
a separate and abstracted genomic interval library.
gia is distributed using the rust package manager cargo.
