Golm Metabolom as database

[yguitton]

IDEA can we create a tool that read the Golm Metabolom database files and format it to be usable into metaMS ?

[yguitton]

NOTE the MSP format from Golm Is a bit different from the one that meatMS can read with read.msp function
Num Peaks: 50
70:10 76:35 77:1000 78:110 79:42

instead of
Num Peaks: 50
70 10; 76 35; 77 1000; 78 110; 79 42;

We need a parser that can read Golm natvie msp and change it to metaMS format

I can help you on the database point (sources, formatting...). Good news are: golm is downloadable(http://gmd.mpimp-golm.mpg.de/download/) and releases are blocked (2011-11-21).
But there is lot of versions: FAME, ALK with VAR5/MDN35 variations... Which one is interesting?

[yguitton]

all versions are ok but first is ALK VAR5
