It has been many years since I created Annapotater out of the frustration that there was no simple SNP annotation tool at the time. The mainstream tool required Java and if you wanted to have a custom genome, then it was also a pain.

I gave it a silly name because I thought it was a silly project. A cross between "annotate" and "potato" which was a sort of slang term for bad camera at the time. But I also liked the name because just like a SNP, the name can be pronounced with many different variations.
