GRain2.2: this version remplaces GRain1.0 and fixes a bug described in Doekes et al, 2020 (see paper in Publications directory) - Author: Ino Curik et al.

This software is a group of independent programs written in Fortran with the same philosophy, to extract and recode a pedigree file, calculate probabilities of the origin of genes, coefficients of inbreeding and lineage and to characterise the depth of genealogical information. The program can analyse files containing millions of individuals. It is easy to install with either Windows or Unix. The archive to be downloaded contains source codes, a manual, four examples and executable programs for Windows and Linux.

Main evolutions of this release: programs adapt to the size of the application through memory dynamic allocation; programs anc_comm (search for common ancestors) and verif_ped (search for pedigree errors) were added; new options in ped_util; binaries were produced with gfortran.
