Hi Pete, Excellent idea. That will make things like table() work out-of-the-box on GenomicRanges objects. I'll add that.
Thanks, H. On 04/24/2015 09:43 AM, Peter Haverty wrote:
Would people be interested in having this: setMethod("as.character", "GenomicRanges", function(x) { paste0(seqnames(x), ":", start(x), "-", end(x)) }) ? I find myself doing that a lot to make unique names or for output that goes to collaborators. I suppose we might want to tack on the strand if it isn't "*". I have some code for going the other direction too, if there is interest. Pete ____________________ Peter M.
