GAF files in pangenomics

I have been working on NCBI-submitted data, I downloaded the GAF file but am unable to view the file. Can anyone suggest to me which tool should I use to view the GAF file and how to execute it?

go annotation

Please change the title to something meaningful, thanks

A GAF file is a Graph Alignment Format file. You can read it with a text file viewer like notepad++ or less

See it and other pangenome formats here:
