[Genome] psltoBed

[Hiram Clawson]

When you type 'make' in that directory (assuming you have already
built the libraries) the executable file will be placed in $HOME/bin/$MACHTYPE
unless you have system administrators building this source tree into some
other special global directory available to all users.

Add $HOME/bin/$MACHTYPE/ to your PATH environment variable of your shell.

Please note the source tree build instruction in:
	src/product/README.building.source
and the last notes at the end of the file:
	src/product/README.trackDb
about building everything in the source tree.

Also, if you are running pslToBed to create a bed file to load into the
genome browser, please note the loader command: hgLoadPsl
which will load a psl file directly into a table that can be used in
the genome browser as a track of 'type psl'
See also, the notes about types of tracks in:
	src/hg/makeDb/trackDb/README
