This script matches a provided species list with the Panarctic Species List (PASL) (Raynolds et al, 2013) to obtain the commonly accepted scientific names of the plants, including short names and full names.
Inputs:
- Species list: CSV file containing a list of species names, as provided by the geobotanist;
- PASL: a text file with the Panarctic Species List names, including the short and full scientific names of the plants (with synonyms).
Outputs:
- A new file with the matched species list, including the short and full scientific names of the plants as found in the PASL.

Methods
The script processes text to translate the names of a target dataset to the PASL format. It does this by removing special characters, replacing "sp" with "species," and adjusting for any 2-symbol differences between matching tables.
