Deletion format #75

I ran your tool Platypus, for determining deletions in a chromosome strain. I considered the site to be a deletion if the sequence under "REF" had a length greater than one and the length of "ALT" was 1, and calculated the length of the deletion by the difference in the length of the two sequences. As a result, most of the deletions had a very small length. Is this interpretation correct? If not, how can I determine the length and end position of the deletion?
