_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This function makes a chromOrd object.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     make.chromOrd(genome, gnames)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

  genome: A character string. 

  gnames: A character vector of the genes to be selected. 

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     This function reads in a lot of annotation data and creates a list
     with one element for each chromosome. The elements of this list
     are indices indicating the order of the genes that are on that
     chromosome (and in the annotation data set being used).

_V_a_l_u_e:

     A list of chromOrd type. One element for each chromosome. Suitable
     for reordering other values according to the chromosomal location.
