Uses the map distances as a means of assigning a prior for chromosomal location. Basically, this function attempts to assign equal weight according to the spacing or markers and 'virtual' markers.
make.location.prior( x, add.2.end=0, normalize=TRUE )A vector of length(x) whose sum is one, if normalize==TRUE
\(x = e^{-mgd}\) ,where mgd is the map distance in Morgans
How many Morgans to extend the first and last interval on each chromosome
If TRUE, let the result sum to 1.0
