Description

Hi!
I've been trying to get FST estimates per variant. I'm using the flag "fstdetailsname" as shown below, which I thought would do that, but I still only get the overall FST estimate. I tried other configurations but so far I only get that one line of output.
I would be very grateful for any help on this :) thank you!

My par file looks as follows:
genotypename: phased_panel.snpOnly.targetPopFiltered.ped
snpname: phased_panel.snpOnly.targetPopFiltered.map
indivname: AMR_EAS_EUR_poplist.ind
poplistname: AMR_EAS.EIGEN.list
fstonly: YES
fstdetailsname: FSTdetails.out
phylipoutname: FSTmatrix.phy

Output:
Fst statistics between populations: fst fstjack std error Z snpnumber
F_st AMR EAS 0.004445 0.004445 0.000254 17.467 3595170

Research direction

Start by reproducing the report with the supplied parameter file and input names, checking how fstonly and fstdetailsname are handled. Trace the FST output path to determine why only the summary line appears. Done means the same run produces the expected per-variant FST details file while retaining the overall estimate.
