\section{Changes in version 1.3.7}{
  \itemize{
    \item Updates to vignette
    \item Fix bug removing variants by name in \code{variantCounts}
    \item Fixed argument \code{legend.symbol.size} being ignored in
    plotAlignmenta,DNAString-method. 
  }
}

\section{Changes in version 1.3.6}{
  \itemize{
    \item Fix in new function mergeChimeras when no chimeras present
  }
}

\section{Changes in version 1.3.5}{
  \itemize{
    \item New option "minoverlap" in \code{readsToTarget} allows reads that
    do not span the target region to be considered
    \item \code{plotAlignments} now works with character as well as DNAString
    objects
    \item Merging of long gaps mapped as chimeras now possible    
  }
}

\section{Changes in version 1.3.4}{
  \itemize{
      \item New function \code{refFromAlns} infers the reference sequence from aligned reads
      \item Fixed bug causing an empty plot when plotting a single alignment
      with a large deletion
      \item Changed \code{annotateGenePlot} from panel.margin to panel.spacing in accordance
      with recent ggplot2 versions
      \item Added "create.plot" argument to \code{plotAlignments} for signature 
      \code{CrisprSet} to make plot customisation easier.
      \item Fixed bug in argument names when all alignments are chimeric
      \item CrisprRun name now defaults to the coordinates when no name is provided
  }
}


\section{Changes in version 1.3.3}{

  }
}
