bwtool

bwtool might be available on conda (if it's the same tool) - if you're interested.

Thanks for your new contribution, we need tools to work on bigwig since it's an important quantitative and very fast track for genome browsers. Especially for RNA-seq, methylation (including from Oxford Nanopore - where your bed-> bigwig will be most useful) and ChIP-seq.

thanks! that works for me. I just checked bioconda and moved on. I just wrote the command-line part on a whim (and to test the library which I'll use elsewhere), but now I find it fills a niche not offered in other tools. For example, I can convert bed to bigwig easily without the kentTools and there are more options in my tool.

very interested to hear any things missing with regard to bigwig tools.
