Updating

To update the symbols maps for human and mouse yourself, download this repository and run:

./update.sh

from its root directory. Note that this script uses the "roxygen2" R library to update the documentation.

Alternatively, you can use updated maps without updating the package, see ?getCurrentMaps.
