Use python for mapper scripts #43

Open magicDGS opened 6 years ago

magicDGS commented 6 years ago

Currently, the mapping scripts (*_mapping.pl), are implemented in perl, which is less readable than python. Implementing this scripts in python might be a good addition for increase readability, and also to allow other users to implement easier other kind of mappers (they just need to add a python script to handle the mapper).

This is just a random idea after looking at the bin folder and its content...
