  BAM library provides I/O and various operations on manipulating files
  in the BAM (Binary Alignment/Mapping) or SAM (Sequence Alignment/Map)
  format. It now supports importing from or exporting to SAM, sorting,
  merging, generating pileup, and quickly retrieval of reads overlapped
  with a specified region.
