Description: keggrest
        ========
        
        implementation of the rest API to access the kegg database
        
        Implemented functions
        --------
        
        RESTrequest(*args, **kwargs) -> response string
        
            create a request to the KEGG url, is the basis for all the other call.
            Take as argument the pieces of the rest call.
        
        KEGGlink(db1, db2, **kwargs) -> (dict, dict)
        
            evaluate the connection between two databases, return two dictionaries
            of list that gives how each element of the database is related to the
            elements of the other
        
        KEGGconv(db1, db2, **kwargs) -> (dict, dict)
        
            convert between one kegg database and an external one. currently supported
            are the uniprot, ncbi-gi and ncbi-geneid for genes and pubchem, chebi
            for chemical compounds. Return the two lookup table (dicts) two convert
            from one dictionary to the other
        
        KEGGlist(db, organism='', **kwargs) -> dict
        
            return all the element of a specific database for a certain organism,
            in the form of a dictionary element: description
        
        KEGGget(element, option='', **kwargs) -> dict
        
            return the dictionary of description of the required object.
            possible options are: aaseq | ntseq | mol | kcf | image | kgml
        
        KEGGbrite(britename, option='', **kwargs) -> dict of dicts
        
            analize a brite ontology and return a dictionary of dictionaries.
            still in beta version, works up to three level of hierarchy.
