# This program detects overlapping indels in a chromosome and keeps all non-overlapping indels. As for overlapping indels, 
# the first encountered one is kept and all others are removed. It requires three inputs: 
# The first input is a TABULAR format file containing coordinates of indels in blocks extracted from multi-alignment.
# The second input is an integer number representing the number of the column where indel start coordinates are stored in the input file.
# The third input is an integer number representing the number of the column where indel end coordinates are stored in the input file.
# The output is a TABULAR format file containing all non-overlapping indels in the input file, and the first encountered indel of overlapping ones.
# Note: The number of the first column is 1.
