Notice: This version of bed2UCSC.pl needs not only pubmed ids but also a short reference to detect pubmed IDs and it detects pubmed IDs with 8 digits only. Will fix that in a future revision.
UPDATED: This version of bed2UCSC.pl fixes a problem with pubmed ids.

The perl script bed2UCSC.pl below can be used to upload a BED file (custom tracks) to the UCSC wiki track. Feel free to adjust it to your needs. It is licensed under the LGPL 2.1 and all newer versions of the LGPL.

Documentation and Dependencies

The script is documented in the source code. Its usage can be shown using perldoc bed2UCSC.pl. It needs PERL, cURL and an operating system with a /dev/null-device to run. Furthermore the LWP::UserAgent and the Clone module from CPAN have to be available.
