How to convert population SNPs frequency data into Plink format?

My format:

plink snp

Maybe I misunderstand your question, but plink takes as input individual genotype data, and you have data of allele frequency aggregated by population, so you cannot "convert" your data to plink format, since in your data you are missing a lot of information that plink needs.

Is there a good alternative to Plink when dealing with population allele frequency?
