## Get the organelle markers in an `MSnSet`

### Description

Convenience accessor to the organelle markers in an `MSnSet`. This function returns the organelle markers of an `MSnSet` instance. As a side effect, it print out a marker table.

### Usage

    getMarkers(object, fcol = "markers", names = TRUE, verbose = TRUE)

### Arguments

`object` | An instance of class `"MSnSet"`.
`fcol` | The name of the markers column in the `featureData` slot. Default is `"markers"`.
`names` | A `logical` indicating if the markers vector should be named. Ignored if markers are encoded as a matrix.
`verbose` | If `TRUE`, a marker table is printed and the markers are returned invisibly. If `FALSE`, the markers are returned.

### Value

A `character` (`matrix`) of length (ncol) `ncol(object)`, depending on the vector or matrix encoding of the markers.
