Dear the developers,

I found bigWigMerge included in the source tree is very useful, but  
found different outputs depending on the order of files, which is not  
expected from its description ("bigWigMerge - Merge together multiple  
bigWigs into a single output bedGraph").

$ bigWigToBedGraph t1.bw /dev/stdout
chr1    10000   10001   1
chr2    20000   20001   1

$ bigWigToBedGraph t2.bw /dev/stdout
chr1    1000    20001   1

$ bigWigMerge  t1.bw t2.bw /dev/stdout
chr1    1000    10000   1
chr1    10000   10001   2
chr1    10001   20001   1
chr2    20000   20001   1

# this is the expected result

$ bigWigMerge  t2.bw t1.bw /dev/stdout
chr1    10000   10001   2
chr1    10001   20001   1

# two lines disappeared



best wishes,
Kawaji H.
