Tool for Variant Normalization nomenclature

Is there a tool to normalize variant from a vcf file ? I read this : http://genome.sph.umich.edu/wiki/Variant_Normalization , but I am looking for a tool which did the job.

vcf variant normalization

They used vt, since that's the group that wrote it.

Did you used it before? If so what was the difference in result?

I rarely work with VCF files, so I've not needed to use vt. I'm not sure if there's a big difference to the output produced by the various read normalization programs.
