Hi @arendsee ,
Sorry for the delay in getting to this: end of the year is a busy time. I can see how this could be confusing for folks moving queries from the web to rentrez. I'll leave this issue open until I make a note in the in-line docs, the vignette or both.
Thanks for submitting the issue, always like to hear how users are getting on with rentrez!
Entrez supports long and short versions of tags, for example:
esearch.fcgi?db=taxonomy&term=Bacteria[Next+Level]
Is equivalent to
esearch.fcgi?db=taxonomy&term=Bacteria[NXLV]
But in
rentrez
:This is pretty trivial (I'm even a little embarrassed to bring it up), but it could cause some confusion for people who copy and paste queries from URLs.
