You can just do a simple:

res <- readBmanual(a=1, b=howevermanythereare) 
save(res, file="~/Downloads/bergeys.rda", compress="xz")

make sure there's LazyData: TRUE in the DESCRIPTION, and document the data as in https://github.com/waldronlab/HGNChelper/blob/master/R/data.R. Then use readBmanual only to update to update the package dataset, and document using the stored data for normal use to be faster, provide reproducible versioned data, and avoid frequent scraping.

Alright, I think I have finally completed this step.
