How can I used *.fa.bwt in my own script #218

Hi, there~ I recently wanted to implement a tool for rapid searching of genomes, and found that it can be quickly implemented through BWT's index (the ideas mentioned in the article). So I hope to be able to directly use the .bwt file created by BWA for the genome. However, due to the lack of knowledge of the C language, some places do not understand, I would like to ask if there is a possibility to read the *.bwt method, and can know the internal results. I generally use python, and if there is a python solution, it would be better.
