Just a note that we need to test on

Mac, Linux, Windows

Before we release. At least one user of the old version reported not being able to get it working on Windows, something to do with needing Rtools, but installing Rtools not fixing the issues.

I installed it on two OS: OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (Linux Kernel 5.5.7) and Windows 10 Build 1909. Installation was flawless on Tumbleweed. I have been able to load the library. I just need to try it with sanger data.

I got it worked on Windows as well, but I had to fix a few errors before I got it to work. I fixed the installation issues by updating R to version 3.6.3, re-install Rtools, devtools and rcpp manually.

If the error below shows up during devtools installation and/or rcpp, find 00LOCK folders using Windows Explorer and remove it manually. Then, try to re-install devtools again. It should fix the problems.
