Convert tagAlign file to bigBed / bigWig

Hi,

I have a bunch of tagAlign files from the Roadmap epigenome, and I would like to convert them into bigBed anr/or bigWig.

I never used tagAlign files before. Does anyone knows how to handle those format? Is there any tool out there to convert them into common formats?

Thanks

Trying this at the moment:

bedtools genomecov -i $file.tagAlign -bg  -g $hg19.genome > $filename.bedGraph
bedGraphToBigWig $filename.bedGraph  $hg19.genome    $filename.bw

FYI This seems to work:

bedtools genomecov -i $file.tagAlign -bg  -g $hg19.genome > $filename.bedGraph
bedGraphToBigWig $filename.bedGraph  $hg19.genome    $filename.bw
