- Fixed bug in rangesPlot which caused it to plot reads longer than maxFragLength twice
- Fixed bug in genePlot which caused an error for genes with a single exon
- Added PeakLocation function. It produces the same plots as stdPeakLocation except that it doesn't standardize the coordinates.

- closestGene: Some rbinds have been removed and do.call is used insted to use less memory.
- closestGene: Better control of downloaded refflat files has been added.
- closestGene: new parameter added (promoterInOther). If it's TRUE peaks that are in a promoter region and inside other gene will be assigned to both genes. Only works when multiple=TRUE.
VERSION 0.2.0
- Fixed bug in alignPeaks which caused it not to work when there were some chromosomes with no sequences. Also, now alignPeaks reports the estimated shift.
