Information on using WigReader in your own scripts can be found here: http://ron.gejman.com/blog/2012/07/27/wigreader-a-chip-seq-tool/
Some C programs for handling wiggle files.
The ones I have spent the most time on, in terms of using and testing, are
WigReader: Base class for reading wiggle files.
normalizeWig: Used to normalize wiggle files to RPKM.
geneProfile: Used to output wiggle values along a length of genome (could be a gene or a promoter, or anything you can put into a bed file)
The other tools I have used at various times for my projects, but they have not been tested as rigorously. For example, edge-cases that I haven't tested for may fail.
These tools are really only going to be useful for bioinformaticians trying to extract data from wiggle files.
If you have a BAM file, you can create a wiggle file using IGVtools (e.g. igvtools count -e 100 -w 25 chip.bam "chip.cov.tdf, chip.cov.wig" genome.genome). However, these wiggle files are not normalized. You have to normalize the output using normalizeWig to get wiggle files in RPKM.

That's it!
These scripts are very memory intensive. They are designed to be run on computers with lots of ram (read: > 32 GBs) and to work on very large ChIP-Seq files.
There may be bugs. I am not responsible for any bugs.
The file naming conventions (e.g. output files) are a bit strange and "dictatorial" -- they are setup to spit out files named the way I like as data progresses from one script to the next.
The most important class here is wigreader. You can use wigreader in any of your own C/C++ programs
You may use any of these scripts for commericial or non-commercial purposes, as you see fit. If you do use these tools and they result in a figure or data for a publication, please cite me or the tools in some way.
Please contact me if you find any bugs. If you fix a bug, please push the fix to me and I will accept it!
