Function to write KinGUI input files from kinetic data

Usage

kinwrite.KinGUI(kinobject, file, comment=NA)

Arguments

kinobject
A list containing the following elements: The name of the parent compound to be output (parent), the type of the test system (type), the name of the specific test system used for generating this dataset (system), a data frame containing the raw data (data), which should be in the same form as required by by kinfit.
file
