InSegT Jochen Kumm, Department of Statistics, University of Washington. This work was supported by NIH grant GM-46255 and NSF grant ACI-9619020. Example and test files were provided by GAW10 data (NIH grant GM-3157). InSegT is a C++ program that constructs feasible haplotype configurations and the corresponding segregation types on pedigrees. The haplotype configuration minimizes recombinations on the pedigree. It uses the C++ standard template library (STL) and should compile readily on many platforms. It has been compiled under Windows9x and a Mac Powerbook using the Metrowerks compiler, a DEC Alpha Workstation and an SGI IRIX workstation using the GNU compiler (g++). For compilation under UNIX use the Makefile and the make command. Comments in the Makefile identify where to set the home directory for InSegT. To install the program download InSegT.tgz, gunzip ("gunzip InSegT.tgz") and untar ("tar -xvf InSegT.tar") the archive in a directory of your choice, say {INSEGT_DIR}, and see the more detailed documentation in the InSegT_doc file (available as LATEK, DVI or Postscript) in the {INSEGT_DIR}/documentation/ directory. Questions and comments should be addressed to jochen@u.washington.edu. ********************************************************************* The above information refers to InSegT_V1, released Jan 1999. Information for version 1.1, released September 1999 is similar -- gunzip and untar (tar xvf). You will then find additional information and documentation.
