 Download the autoSql file <em><a href="examples/bigMaf.as">bigMaf.as</a></em> needed by 
 <code>bedToBigBed</code>. If you have opted to include the optional frame summary and information

 <p>
 In this example, you will create a bigMaf file from an existing bigMaf input file, 
 <em>bigMaf.txt</em>, located on the UCSC Genome Browser http server.</p>
 <ol>
   <li>
   Save the bed3+1 example file, <a href="examples/bigMaf.txt"><em>bigMaf.txt</em></a>, to your 
   computer (<em>Step 6</em>, above).</li>
   <li>
   Save the autoSql file <a href="examples/bigMaf.as"><em>bigMaf.as</em></a> to your computer

   Save the <a href="hg38.chrom.sizes"><em>hg38.chrom.sizes</em> text file</a> to your computer. 
   This file contains the chrom.sizes for the human (hg38) assembly (<em>Step 5</em>, above).</li>
   <li>
   Run the <code>bedToBigBed</code> utility to create a binary indexed MAF file (<em>Step 6</em>,
   above):
 <pre><code>bedToBigBed -type=bed3+1 -tab -as=bigMaf.as bigMaf.txt hg38.chrom.sizes bigMaf.bb</code></pre></li>
   <li>
   Move the newly created bigMaf file (<em>bigMaf.bb</em>) to a web-accessible location (<em>Step 
   7</em>, above).</li>
   <li>
   Construct a track line that points to the bigMaf file (<em>Step 8</em>, above).</li>
   <li>
   Create the custom track on the human assembly hg38 (Dec. 2013), and view it in the Genome Browser 
   (<em>step 9</em>, above).</li>

 <h2>Sharing your data with others</h2>
 <p>
 If you would like to share your bigMaf data track with a colleague, learn how to create a URL by 
 looking at Example 6 on <a href="customTrack.html#EXAMPLE6">this page</a>.</p>
 
 <h2>Extracting data from the bigMaf format</h2>
 <p>
 Because bigMaf files are an extension of bigBed files, which are indexed binary files, it can 
 be difficult to extract data from them. UCSC has developed the following programs to assist
 in working with bigBed formats, available from the 
-<a href="http://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/admin/exe/">binary utilities directory</a>.</p>
+<a href="http://hgdownload.gi.ucsc.edu/admin/exe/">binary utilities directory</a>.</p>
 <ul>
   <li>
   <code>bigBedToBed</code> &mdash; converts a bigBed file to ASCII BED format.</li>
   <li>
   <code>bigBedSummary</code> &mdash; extracts summary information from a bigBed file.</li>
   <li>
   <code>bigBedInfo</code> &mdash; prints out information about a bigBed file.</li>
 </ul>
 <p>
 As with all UCSC Genome Browser programs, simply type the program name (with no parameters) at the 
 command line to view the usage statement.</p>
 
 <h2>Troubleshooting</h2>
 <p>
 If you encounter an error when you run the <code>bedToBigBed</code> program, check your input 
 file for data coordinates that extend past the the end of the chromosome. If these are present, run 
 the <code>bedClip</code> program

 row(s) in your input file before running the <code>bedToBigBed</code> program.</p>
