We are currently building our package and we have a question, we hope you can help us with. While writing the documentation for the function(.Rd file) the examples section is mandatory, but our function uses chrom.sizes and chain files which should be user provided. How can we address this while writing the example? Should we include a chrom.sizes file and a chain file in the inst folder to allow the example to run? And the disadvantage of that would be that the package would be large since the chain file is a large file. Any recommendations? Thank you.
