[BioC] Creating a custom chromLocation object for cPlot

Greetings

I am trying to create a custom chromLocation object from RNA-seq data  
aligned against the UCSC knownGene table for plotting with cPlot.  The  
quickest way I see to do that is to assemble it from the expression  
results. If I look at chromLocs(buildChromLocation("org.Mm.eg")) I see  
(for example)

$`9`
  100009600  100036537  100039707  100040259  100041096  100041605   
100041618  100042265  100042314
  -20866836   49326392  -88583442  -14649687  106528912  -35656129   
-35941871 -121758657   78137734
  100042464  100042485  100216535  100217453  100312948  100312949   
100312956  100312986  100312987

from which I deduce that the first 8 values could be four pairs. But  
that leaves 100042314 -20866836. What is the format for this list?

Also, is there an easier way to go about this?

Thanks

Mike
