+**What it does**
+
+bedtools merge combines overlapping or "book-ended" features in an interval file into a single feature which spans all of the combined features.
+
+
+.. image:: $PATH_TO_IMAGES/merge-glyph.png
+
+
+.. class:: warningmark
+
+bedtools merge requires that you presort your data by chromosome and then by start position.
+
+
+==========================================================================
+Default behavior
+==========================================================================
+By default, ``bedtools merge`` combines overlapping (by at least 1 bp) and/or
+bookended intervals into a single, "flattened" or "merged" interval.
+
+::
+
+  $ cat A.bed
+  chr1  100  200
+  chr1  180  250
+  chr1  250  500
+  chr1  501  1000
+
+  $ bedtools merge -i A.bed
+  chr1  100  500
+  chr1  501  1000
+
+
+==========================================================================
+*-s* Enforcing "strandedness"
+==========================================================================
+The ``-s`` option will only merge intervals that are overlapping/bookended
+*and* are on the same strand.
+
+::
+
+  $ cat A.bed
+  chr1  100  200   a1  1 +
+  chr1  180  250   a2  2 +
+  chr1  250  500   a3  3 -
+  chr1  501  1000  a4  4 +
+
+  $ bedtools merge -i A.bed -s
+  chr1  100  250    +
+  chr1  501  1000   +
+  chr1  250  500    -
+
+
+==========================================================================
+*-d* Controlling how close two features must be in order to merge 
+==========================================================================
+By default, only overlapping or book-ended features are combined into a new 
+feature. However, one can force ``merge`` to combine more distant features 
+with the ``-d`` option. For example, were one to set ``-d`` to 1000, any 
+features that overlap or are within 1000 base pairs of one another will be 
+combined.
+
+::
+
+  $ cat A.bed
+  chr1  100  200
+  chr1  501  1000
+  
+  $ bedtools merge -i A.bed
+  chr1  100  200
+  chr1  501  1000
+
+  $ bedtools merge -i A.bed -d 1000
+  chr1  100  200  1000
