## Location of the package with the data files.

## Settings

# Linear model to use, modelANOVA, modelLINEAR, or modelLINEAR_CROSS
useModel = modelLINEAR; # modelANOVA, modelLINEAR, or modelLINEAR_CROSS

# Genotype file name

# Gene expression file name

# Covariates file name

# Output file name

# Error covariance matrix
# Set to numeric() for identity.

## Load genotype data

snps = SlicedData$new();
snps$fileDelimiter = "\t";      # the TAB character

snps$fileSkipRows = 1;          # one row of column labels

snps$fileSliceSize = 2000;      # read file in slices of 2,000 rows
snps$LoadFile(SNP_file_name);

## Load gene expression data

gene = SlicedData$new();
gene$fileDelimiter = "\t";      # the TAB character
gene$fileOmitCharacters = "NA"; # denote missing values;
gene$fileSkipRows = 1;          # one row of column labels

gene$fileSliceSize = 2000;      # read file in slices of 2,000 rows
gene$LoadFile(expression_file_name);

## Load covariates

cvrt = SlicedData$new();
cvrt$fileDelimiter = "\t";      # the TAB character
cvrt$fileOmitCharacters = "NA"; # denote missing values;
cvrt$fileSkipRows = 1;          # one row of column labels
cvrt$fileSkipColumns = 1;       # one column of row labels

## Run the analysis
snpspos = read.table(snps_location_file_name, header = TRUE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE);

me = Matrix_eQTL_main(

unlink(output_file_name_tra);
unlink(output_file_name_cis);

## Results:

cat('Analysis done in: ', me$time.in.sec, ' seconds', '\n');
cat('Detected local eQTLs:', '\n');
show(me$cis$eqtls)
cat('Detected distant eQTLs:', '\n');
show(me$trans$eqtls)

## Make the histogram of local and distant p-values
