[BioC] How to install chipseq package

[Patrick Aboyoun]

Yuan,
If you want to create the source tarball, you can use the typical R CMD 
build operation from the OS shell:

<path to R if needed>/R CMD build chipseq

This will create the .tar.gz R source package that you can then install 
using the install.package routine from within R that you mentioned.
