  - Use prefixed Calloc and Free to comply with CRAN.

                 Changes in version 2.0.3 (2020-07-08)                  

  - Replace testthat with tinytest.
  - Do not mix up minor/major and first/second alleles in documentation.

                 Changes in version 2.0.2 (2020-03-11)                  

  - Fix that BED files larger than 2GB cannot be loaded in Windows.
  - Do not produce -Wunused-function warnings in exported BEDMatrix.h
    header.

                 Changes in version 2.0.1 (2019-12-16)                  

  - Fix extra ; outside of compute_num_bytes_per_variant function in
    exported BEDMatrix.h header (found by CRAN incoming checks).

                        Changes in version 2.0.0                        

  - Extractions can be canceled with Control-c.
  - Reimplement package in C, drop Rcpp.
  - Genotypes can be extracted on the C level in other packages by
    adding BEDMatrix to the LinkingTo field of the DESCRIPTION file and
    including the BEDMatrix.h in your C code. The header file contains
    the BEDMatrix struct and the following functions:
    compute_num_bytes_per_variant(), extract_genotype_linear(),
    extract_genotype_cartesian(), and recode_genotype().

                 Changes in version 1.6.1 (2019-06-21)

  - Follow [Bioconductor S4 practices][2]. If you have used new() to
    create BEDMatrix instances, please use the constructor BEDMatrix()
    instead.
  - Fix non-character rownames or colnames when data.table package is
    installed.
  - Drop C++11 requirement.
  - Update citation instructions.

                 Changes in version 1.5.0 (2019-04-25)                  

  - Add simple_names option to BEDMatrix initialization function
    (contributed by Alex Ochoa).
  - Fix single indexing for index values greater than
    .Machine$integer.max (previously generated NAs).
  - Minor performance improvements.

                 Changes in version 1.4.1 (2018-08-06)                  

  - Specify fileset name in messages during instantiation.

                 Changes in version 1.4.0 (2017-05-07)                  

  - Support subsetting by NA.
  - Use [crochet package][1] for subsetting
  - Fix minor subsetting bugs
  - Update example
  - Remove intermediate S3 BEDMatrix type

                 Changes in version 1.3.0 (2016-09-28)                  

  - Speed up character subsetting.
  - Speed up detection of n, p, rownames, and colnames during
    initialization if data.table package is installed.
  - Support str function.

  - Support path without extension (like PLINK).
  - Add path attribute (to reattach instance after saving it to RData).
  - Add length method.
  - Add as.matrix method.
  - Add is.matrix method.
  - Store dimensions in S3 wrapper as dims attribute to allow for faster
    recreation when saved.
  - Fix bug that modified i and j when subsetting.

                 Changes in version 1.1.0 (2015-11-30)                  

  - Restore cross-platform compatibility by dropping the system
    dependency on Boost.IOStreams in favor of Boost.Interprocess which
    provides header-only memory-mapping and is therefore supported by
    the BH package.

                 Changes in version 1.0.1 (2015-11-12)
