I have created a subset of a WES pVCF focusing on my genomic region of interest resulting in a 1.71 MiB file. I would like to manually inspect the file. I tried using BCFTools view but it cuts off before the even the header info. What is the best approach here? Thanks!
I usually user two different strategies depending on situation.
1) use interactive workstation like ttyd, cloud workstation, jupyter notebook, Rstudio. I usually do this when I need detailed investigation.
2) user BCFtools view in swiss-army-knife, but then you can pipe it through `head` and control number of line that you want to view. You may use grep -v to exclude header or select just header too. Usually, I do this when I have pretty good idea of what I'm looking for.
