Changes in version 1.10                         

New Feature

  - Added a visualization that is an extension of manhattan plot called
    binned manhattan plot. Instead of plotting each individual variant,
    the variants are binned based on position (x-axis) and log10 p-value
    (y-axis). More information can be found in the vignette.

  - Preprocessing function is binned_manhattan_preprocess and plotting
    function is binned_manhattan_plot.

Internal Changes

  - Change the way positions of the variants are calculated. MPdata now
    saves the unscaled positions and the scaling is done in
    manhattan_plot function. (this is for the x-axis)

  - To get the actual relative positions used in the manhattan plot, use
    calc_new_pos() on the MPdata object.

  - Gap between chromosomes can be rescaled by using chr.gap.scaling=
    argument inside manhattan_data_preprocess and manhattan_plot
    functions.

  - Now accounts for negative positions.

                        Changes in version 0.99                         

  - Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
