tabix.read.table: Error: Error: non-character argument

[bschilder]

tabix.read.table fails on Windows. It seems that your GHA checks are also indicating this to you, but those have expired so I can't check.

@zhanxw is seqminer still being maintained or should it be considered deprecated and no longer used? I'm wondering because it's (currently) a dep for several of my packages.

remotes::install_github("RajLabMSSM/echodata")
remotes::install_github("RajLabMSSM/echotabix")
library(echotabix)

BST1 <- echodata::BST1 
    fullSS_path <- echodata::example_fullSS()
    fullSS_tabix <- convert(fullSS_path = fullSS_path,
                            start_col = "BP")
# Wraps seqminer and some other tools
tab1 <- query_tabular(
        fullSS_tabix = fullSS_tabix,
        chrom = BST1$CHR[1],
        start_pos = min(BST1$POS),
        end_pos = max(BST1$POS)
    )

Error report

Found here.

Seems to be related to this.

Thanks,

@zhanxw would really appreciate a response on this, particularly on whether seqminer should be used or not.
