makeDesignFiles.py: ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'start'

Hi there!

Since a couple days I am working on getting a capture HiC analysis working, and now I stumpled across the following error when calling makeDesignFiles.py

stephan@stephan-VirtualBox [~/Documents/pmi/hic-10mem-proto/chicago/designDir] >> : python ~/chicago/chicagoTools/makeDesignFiles.py
Located baitmapfile pb10_rp4_baited_fragments.baitmap in .

baitmapfile=./pb10_rp4_baited_fragments.baitmap

Reading rmap....
Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'start'

I created the rmap and baitmap files via R, basically using the digest file of HiCup as a template. The files look like this:

head(*.rmap)
chr start end fragmentID
NZ_AJWE01000001.1 1 12 Frag_000001
NZ_AJWE01000001.1 13 54 Frag_000002

Does anybody see something wrong with them, and can explain what I need to do to fix this issue?

Thanks!
