Map Coloring URL

The following URLs are backward compatible to the original Search&Color Pathway tool, a part of the current KEGG Mapper Color tool.

URL forms

https://www.kegg.jp/kegg-bin/show_pathway?map=<mapid>&multi_query=<dataset>[&nocolor=1]

<mapid> = KEGG pathway map identifier
<dataset> = <kid>₁+<bgcolor>₁,<fgcolor>₁[%0d%0a<kid>₂+<bgcolor>₂,<fgcolor>₂...]

<kid> = KEGG identifier
<bgcolor> = background color             "%0d" represents CR in ASCII code
<fgcolor> = foreground color             "%0a" represents LF in ASCII code

https://www.kegg.jp/kegg-bin/show_pathway?<mapid>/<dataset>[/default%3d<dcolor>]

<mapid> = KEGG pathway map identifier
<dataset> = <kid>₁%09<bgcolor>₁,<fgcolor>₁[/<kid>₂%09<bgcolor>₂,<fgcolor>₂...]

<kid> = KEGG identifier
<bgcolor> = background color             "%09" represents TAB in ASCII code
<fgcolor> = foreground color             "%3d" represents "=" in ASCII code
<dcolor> = default background color

Description

For historical reasons there are two types of URL forms. In the first form coloring is specified by a multiple-line <dataset>, which corresponds to the textarea of KEGG Mapper Color, while in the second form coloring is specified by a slash(/)-delimited <dataset>. The first form allows the use of uncolored diagram (rather than colored organism-specific diagram, for example) by specifying the nocolor option. Use "%23" in ASCII code instead of "#" for hexadecimal color specification.
