[BioC] Suggestion to geneplotter vignette

[Palle Villesen]

Hi,

I'm pretty new to R and bioconductor but am happily using loads of time
getting things to work...

One thing I've stumpled upon trying to get geneplotter to work...

The vignette happily says

library("hu6800")

which doesn't work for me - I had to manually download and install the
hu6800 annotation package.

Later I realised that a

library("annotate")
installDataPackage()

would have done the trick - for many "first time users" - the various
chip descriptions and annotations hasn't been downloaded automatically
(yet). And yes - I know that this actually applies to the "annotate"
package - but my problem was when trying to use geneplotter and the
correspoding vignette.

Also - I'm searching like crazy for help on creating my own
ChromLocation object from my own data - if anybody know of this kind of
help it would be greatly appreciated. (Or just some more doc. on the
class itself - making it a littler simpler for me to "assemble an object
of class chromLocation"...

Greetings,
P., BiRC
