=head1 NAME

gtf2gff.pl      format convert a GTF file

=head1 SYNOPSIS

gtf2gff.pl <in.gtf --out=out.gff

    Besides easy by-line changes this script can in particular swap between the different representations of UTRs:
    a) explicit UTR lines (e.g. 3'-UTR or three_prime_utr)
    b) implicit specification by 'exon' and 'CDS' features
    
=head1 OPTIONS

  out                 gff output file
  --printExon         print exon features (may include CDS and UTR parts)
  --printUTR          print UTR features
  --printIntron       print intron features
  --gff3              output in gff3 format
  --includeStopInCDS  include stop codon in the CDS
