Usage

## S3 method for class 'massvector':
readF(object,path,file=info(object),ext="txt",...)

Arguments

...
ext file extension; default
file file name; default
object object of class massvector. Use constructor massvector()
path path to file.

Details

The read and write functions for all the different peak-list formats are not provided by the package. This is because there are oodles of different formats. I will try to collect read-write functions for as many as possible peak-list format's in an add on package which you can find at http://www.molgen.mpg.de/~wolski/mscalib/IO/. The file format of the file to be read must be: >0_A1_1SRef:1,1 842.4257236 650.66 987.3931319 180.3 ... ... The char between > and : is read into the info field and used as a key in the massvectorlist. So it must be unique. After the double colon the coordinates have to written. The first column are the masses. The second column are the intensities.
