Suggestion

[dmontecino]

Thanks for the package! works great.

I think an option avoiding the "which row do you want" when there are more than 2 matches (I had that with "Camel" and the Bactrian and dromedary ones. For example, if more than one row get the first one or assign a "MOre than one option" fill.

I get a loop stopped because of it.

Completely constructive mood. Thanks

Hi @dmontecino

Many thanks for contacting me and I am happy to hear that you find myTAI useful for your research.

I am happy to incorporate your suggestions into the new version of myTAI.

Would it be possible to be a bit more specific and give some more details so that I can make sure that I correctly understood what you are pointing at? E.g. which concrete functions do you have in mind?

Many thanks, Hajk

Actually, that was very poorly written. I was using your package to get the taxonomy of several species, based on their common name (if I remember correctly). I am doing this with a for loop or lapply/map. It runs great, but when 2 or more matches are found, the loop stops and there is a screen popping up asking me which of the found options I want. It stops the process until answered (parallel computing I tried is not accepted by the server). So my suggestion was, could you add a parameter in the function to choose to include all matches that avoids getting asked which option I want? I hope this is a better explanation. Thanks for reaching out

Hi @dmontecino

Thank you very much for reaching out!

Would it be possible to post the example code here that you are using?

This way, I can design a function more quickly.

Many thanks, Hajk
