- Title: Functions to operate on binary fingerprint data
- Author: Rajarshi Guha <rajarshi.guha@gmail.com>

- Description: This package contains functions to manipulate binary fingerprints
- of arbitrary length. A fingerprint is represented by an object of S4 class 'fingerprint'
- which is internally represented a vector of integers, such
- that each element represents the position in the fingerprint that is set to 1.
- The bitwise logical functions in R are overridden so that they can be used directly
- with 'fingerprint' objects. A number of distance metrics are also
- available (many contributed by Michael Fadock). Fingerprints
- can be converted to Euclidean vectors (i.e., points on the unit hypersphere) and
- can also be folded using OR. Arbitrary fingerprint formats can be handled via line
- handlers. Currently handlers are provided for CDK, MOE and BCI fingerprint data.
