+MACS21: Model-based Analysis of ChIP-Seq (MACS 2.1.0) peak calling
+==================================================================
+
+Galaxy tool wrapper for the peak calling function of MACS 2.1.0. MACS has been
+developed by Tao Lui
+https://github.com/taoliu/MACS/
+
+The reference for MACS is:
+
+- Zhang Y, Liu T, Meyer CA, Eeckhoute J, Johnson DS, Bernstein BE, Nusbaum C, Myers
+  RM, Brown M, Li W, Liu XS. Model-based analysis of ChIP-Seq (MACS). Genome Biol.
+  2008;9(9):R137
+
+Automated installation
+======================
+
+Installation via the Galaxy Tool Shed will take of installing the tool wrapper and
+the MACS 2.1.0 program.
+
+Manual Installation
+===================
+
+There are two files to install:
+
+- ``macs21_wrapper.xml`` (the Galaxy tool definition)
+- ``macs21_wrapper.py.sh`` (the Python script wrapper)
+
+The suggested location is in a ``tools/macs21/`` folder. You will then
+need to modify the ``tools_conf.xml`` file to tell Galaxy to offer the tool
+by adding the line:
+
+    <tool file="macs21/macs21_wrapper.xml" />
+
+You will also need to install MACS 2.1.0 and its dependencies:
+
+- https://pypi.python.org/pypi/MACS2
+
+and ensure that it's on your Galaxy user's ``PATH`` when running the tool.
+
+If you want to run the functional tests, copy the sample test files under
+sample test files under Galaxy's ``test-data/`` directory. Then:
+
+    ./run_tests.sh -id macs2_wrapper
+
+
+History
+=======
+
+This tool was originally based on the ``modencode-dcc`` MACS2 tool developed
+by Ziru Zhou (ziruzhou@gmail.com), specifically the ``16:14f378e35191``
+revision of the tool available via
+
+- http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/modencode-dcc/macs2 
+
+This version has been substantially modified both to adapt it to MACS 2.1.0, and
+to re-implement the internal workings of the tool to conform with current
+practices in invoking commands from Galaxy, and to add new functionality.
