Loads PDB files specified by a valid full file path or URL into a table.
Files may be local or remote, as long as the URL is accessible.
Only paths ending .pdb or .pdb.gz will be loaded. The resulting column will be cast as PDBCells.
File encoding is attempted as follows:
- Firstly, the URL connection to the supplied file is inspected for encoding information.
- If none is available, then the first 4 bytes of the file are inspected for any BOM present, and if so, the following are recognised: UTF-8, UTF-16 (Big- and Little Endian), UTF-32 (Big- and Little Endian).
- Finally, the default (UTF-8) is assumed. As UTF-8 is not required to provide a BOM, this is a reasonable guess in most cases.
