## Get KEGG IDs for compounds, organisms or pathways

### Description

This function returns a list of entries corresponding to one of the following KEGG databases: "compound", "organism", "pathway". It can also find entries with matching query keywords in a given database.

### Usage

    MS_keggFinder(KEGG_database, match = NULL, organism_code)

### Arguments

`KEGG_database` | character vector containing the name of the KEGG database of interest: "compound", "organism", "pathway".
`match` | character vector containing one or more elements (i.e. key words) to be matched as compound names.
`organism_code` | character vector containing the KEGG code for the organism of interest. For example the KEGG code for the rat is "rno". This argument is only required for KEGG_database = "pathway".

### Value

By default, a matrix where each row contains the KEGG entries of the database of interest. When using the option "match" a list is returned, each list element containing information of matched entries.

### Examples

    MS_keggFinder(KEGG_database = "compound", match = "acetoacetic acid")

    MS_keggFinder(KEGG_database = "organism", match = c("rattus","human"))

    MS_keggFinder(KEGG_database = "pathway", match = c("glycol", "insulin signal", "akt"),
                organism_code = "rno")
