Recommended "helper" programs

These are freely available programs that complement Sib-pair. Sib-pair can write the appropriate data files for all these, and can automate calling them using macros.

Ghostscript: Allows viewing of Postscript files produced by Sib-pair, if a viewer is not already present.
gzip: If present, Sib-pair will use gzip to automatically compress and decompress large binary format data files.

Graphviz - Graph Visualization Software: Sib-pair can write pedigrees as .dot files for automatic layout and plotting by the Graphviz program dot.
Merlin: Excellent package for parametric and nonparametric multipoint linkage, quantitative trait association, haplotyping ...
Superlink: Fast parametric linkage for large pedigrees.
Mendel: Very broad range of analyses including multipoint multivariate variance components linkage analysis and GWAS.
