This is a convenient function that writes your key to the .Renviron file that is read in at start. You dont have to give the key in, if you use keep the key NULL it will ask for it in the commandline (keeping it out of the logs and .history).

key |
keep NULL to search or add manualy |
location |
what file do you want to write to? defaults to ~/.Renviron |
Of course you can also go to the file and add it yourself. the file should have a line that reads: OMDB_KEY=key
where you replace your key with your key.

It has come to my attention that the use of the omdbapi might violate the terms of service that imdb has set up. According to http://www.imdb.com/conditions scraping is forbidden. I did not scrape IMDB but since we are using the omdb-api, we sort of violate the terms of service indirectly. This is just a heads up.

If you would like to stop this message, add a line to your .Renviron file: IMDBTOGGLE = "off". If you do I presume you have read the message.
