Welcome to GLU: Genotype Library and Utilities
GLU provides command-line tools for the management of large amounts of SNP genotype data and programs to check its quality and to test for association between SNP markers with continuous or discrete trait phenotypes.
This will be an informative, witty, and insightful README file at some point. In the mean time, please excuse the current humble incarnation.
Please refer to the installation directions on the GLU web site or refer to the INSTALL.rst file in the docs/ directory.
To run GLU::
glu -h
glu <module>For information on getting started, please refer to the GLU online documentation, the text documentation in the docs/ directory, or run::

It is highly recommended that interested users and developers join one or both of these groups, since this is where most of the GLU-related discussion will take place and where help may be obtained. You can join from the links at the bottom or right side of the GLU project page.
You will need to create a Google Account, which is painless and does not require a GMail account.
If you do have a GMail account and want email from the group to be sent to another address, then please sign off from GMail before attempting to join either group.
Otherwise, if you are logged into GMail your group subscription may default to your GMail account.
