csawUsersGuide {csaw}R Documentation

View csaw user's guide

Description

Finds the location of the user's guide and opens it for viewing.

Usage

csawUsersGuide(view=TRUE)

Arguments

view

logical scalar specifying whether the document should be opened

Details

The csaw package is designed for de novo detection of differentially bound regions from ChIP-seq data. It provides methods for window-based counting, normalization, filtering and statistical analyses via edgeR. The user guide for this package can be obtained by running this function.

For non-Windows operating systems, the PDF viewer is taken from Sys.getenv("R_PDFVIEWER"). This can be changed to x by using Sys.putenv(R_PDFVIEWER=x). For Windows, the default viewer will be selected to open the file.

Note that the user's guide is not a true vignette as it is not generated using Sweave when the package is built. This is due to the time-consuming nature of the code when run on realistic case studies.

Value

A character string giving the file location. If view=TRUE, the system's default PDF document reader is started and the user's guide is opened.
