#' Annotate peaks file.
#'
#' Annotate a user's peaks file (which has been preprocessed with the peaksInput() command) with gene information based on optimally chosen geneXtendeR upstream extension file.  This command requires a preprocessed "peaks.txt" file (generated using peaksInput()) to be present in the user's working directory, otherwise the user is prompted to rerun the peaksInput() command in order to regenerate it.
#' 
#' @param organism Object name assigned from readGFF() command.
#' @param extension Desired upstream extension.
#'
#' @return The gene coordinates are extended by `extension` at the 5-prime end, and by 500 bp at the 3-prime end.  The peaks file is then overlayed on these new gene coordinates, producing a file of peaks annotated with gene ID, gene name, and gene-to-peak genomic distance (in bp).  Distance is calculated between 5-prime end of gene and 3-prime end of peak.
#' @return A data.table formatted version of the annotated file for checking or further calculations.
