FastRet comes with a GUI for easy and intuitive use. However, sometimes it’s preferable to use FastRet programmatically. This vignette will show you how to use FastRet from the R command line.
The four modes that are available via the FastRet GUI are Train new Model, Predict Retention Times, Selective Measuring and Adjust existing Model. Each of these modes has a corresponding function, which can be called from the command line. The mode-function mapping is as follows:
| Mode | Function |
|---|---|
| Train new Model | train_frm |
| Predict Retention Times | predict.frm |
| Selective Measuring | selective_measuring |
| Adjust existing Model | adjust_frm |
