As I wrote: convert the gap4 database (with your edits) back to CAF, then use 
"miraconvert -t cstats” to recreate some standard info files of MIRA, but using 
that new CAF file. You should get a new info file about consensus tags, which 
contains also the MCVc tags, have a look at that file. Though I’m not sure 
whether these positions would be really wrt to the reference, I need to check.

Anyway, converting to SAM *should” give you positions which are based on the 
reference (there is no other way), you’d just need to parse out the tags out of 
the SAM.

HTH,
