line 215: length-1 #8

Hi. The width of a range is usually calculated by end - start in 0-start half-open system. May I ask why the exitron length in scanExitron.py line215 is called by length-1 ?

ScanExitron makes use of Regtools called splicing junctions as input. Regtools used 1bp adjacent to the junction as the start and end. So Scanexitron has to fix this problem. You may load the BAM file into IGV to check the junctions called by Regtools in the corresponding janno file.
