How is 'tss_id' assigned? #60

Open junghoon-shin opened 3 years ago

junghoon-shin commented 3 years ago

In the <outprefix>.annotated.gtf file, there is an attribute named tss_id. I noticed that transfrags with slightly different start positions share the same tss_id, but couldn't find any mention on this in the documentation. What is the rule that assigns the same tss_id to transfrags with different start positions?
