Reads MIAME information from a file or using a widget.

1	read.MIAME(filename = NULL, widget = getOption("BioC")$Base$use.widgets, ...)

`filename`	Filename from which to read MIAME information.
`widget`	Logical. If `TRUE` and a filename is not given, a widget is used to enter information.
`...`	Further arguments to `scan`.

Notice that the MIAME class tries to cover the MIAME entries that are not covered by other classes in Bioconductor. Namely, experimental design, samples, hybridizations, normalization controls, and pre-processing information.

The function scan is used to read. The file must be a flat file with the different entries for the instance of MIAME class separated by carriage returns. The order should be: name, lab, contact, title, abstract, and url.

Alternatively a widget can be used.

An object of class MIAME.
