[BioC] BigWig Import by Chromosome

[Dario Strbenac]

Hello,

Is there a neater way to import an entire chromosome ?

uniqueness <- import("mapabilityAlign36mer.bigWig", which = GRanges("chr5", IRanges(1, end = .Machine$integer.max - 1)))

GenomicSelection requires a correctly specified genome argument, which I'm unsure of how to obtain from the bigWig file in R.
