TargetedFileConverter

Converts different spectral libraries / transition files for targeted proteomics and metabolomics analysis.

Can convert multiple formats to and from TraML (standardized transition format). The following formats are supported:

  <ul>
    <li> @ref OpenMS::TraMLFile "TraML" </li>
    <li> @ref OpenMS::TransitionTSVFile "OpenSWATH TSV transition lists" </li>
    <li> @ref OpenMS::TransitionPQPFile "OpenSWATH PQP SQLite files" </li>
    <li> SpectraST MRM transition lists </li>
    <li> Skyline transition lists </li>
    <li> Spectronaut transition lists </li>
  </ul>

The command line parameters of this tool are:
