=head1 NAME
Bio::DB::MeSH - Term retrieval from a Web MeSH database
=head1 SYNOPSIS
 my $mesh = Bio::DB::MeSH->new();
 my $term = $mesh->get_exact_term('Butter');
 print $term->description;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This class retrieves a term from the Medical Subject Headings database
by the National Library of Medicine of USA. 
See L<http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/meshhome.html>.
This class implements L<Bio::SimpleAnalysisI> and wraps its methods under
L<get_exact_term>.
By default, web access uses L<WWW::Mechanize>, but in its absence
falls back to bioperl module L<Bio::WebAgent> which is a subclass of
L<LWP::UserAgent>. If not even that is not installed, it uses
L<Bio::Root::HTTPget>.

=head1 FEEDBACK
=head2 Mailing Lists
User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the
Bioperl mailing lists Your participation is much appreciated.

=head2 Support 
Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>
rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and 
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly 
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem 
with code and data examples if at all possible.
=head2 Reporting Bugs
report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
the bugs and their resolution.  Bug reports can be submitted via the

=head2 get_exact_term
  Title   : get_exact_term
  Usage   : $s = $db->get_exact_term($value);
  Function: Retrive a single MeSH term using a unique ID or exact name.
  Example :
  Returns : a Bio::Phenotype::MeSH::Term object
  Args    : scalar, UID or name of a MeSH term
The returned term object contains information about the immediate
vincinity of the term in the terminology hierarchy. See
L<Bio::Phenotype::MeSH::Twig>.
