 **What it does**
 
-This tool summarizes and prepares an intermediary file
-containing scores associated with genomic regions that can be used
+This tool prepares an intermediary file (a gzipped table of values)
+that contains scores associated with genomic regions that can be used
 afterwards to plot a heatmap or a profile.
 
 Genomic regions can really be anything - genes, parts of genes, ChIP-seq
 peaks, favorite genome regions... as long as you provide a proper file
-in BED or INTERVAL format. This tool can also be used to filter and sort
-regions according to their score.
+in BED or INTERVAL format. If you would like to compare different groups of regions
+(i.e. genes from chromosome 2 and 3), you can supply more than 1 BED file, one for each group.
+
+computeMatrix can also be used to filter and sort
+regions according to their score by making use of its advanced output options.
