+VariantTools package supports a workflow for loading data, calling single
+sample variants and tumor-specific somatic mutations or other sample-specific
+variant types (e.g., RNA editing).  Most of the functions operate on
+alignments (BAM files) or datasets of called variants.  The user is expected
+to have already aligned the reads with a separate tool, e.g., GSNAP via
+gmapR.")
