[GenABEL-dev] The GenABEL suite and AutoMM

[Diego Fabregat Traver]

We used C as programming language. As for the dependencies, it requires:

- a compiler with support for OpenMP v3.0. For instance gcc 4.4 or newer; and
- the BLAS and LAPACK libraries. Available both from vendors (e.g. MKL) and 
  open-source/freely (e.g. GotoBLAS and OpenBLAS).

We also use the aio library, which is available on UNIX systems as part of
their standard libraries.

As Yurii mentioned, we are working on the support for the Databel data format.

About options, I am not sure what you mean by that.


Best regards,
