Examples

## Not run: 
# get pathways source = "reactome"
if (!require("reactome.db")) install.packages("reactome.db") 
library(reactome.db)

# Create new environment to save data:
gper.env <- new.env()

paths <- get_pathways(source="reactome",all_paths=FALSE,envir=gper.env)
# when prompted introduce species as listed
Homo sapiens
# when prompted introduce prefix. Avoid characters "-" and "_" (e.g mypath, or leave blank)
# if all_paths set to TRUE. All pathways are downloaded automatically
# IF all_paths set to FALSE, select a subset of pathway identifiers from 
# list. Separated by ","
