bedtools WindowBed (version 2.30.0)
In other words, just report the fact at least one overlap was found in B
Reports 0 for A entries that have no overlap with B

What it does

Similar to bedtools intersect, window searches for overlapping features in A and B. However, window adds a specified number (1000, by default) of base pairs upstream and downstream of each feature in A. In effect, this allows features in B that are “near” features in A to be detected.
