qload: Load one or more packages, installing them first if necessary
Description
This function quickly loads one or more packages,
installing them quietly if necessary.
Usage
qload(..., load = TRUE, silent = TRUE)
Arguments
...
the packages to load/install. Packages are
loaded with library and installed first with
install.packages if necessary.
load
load the packages. Set to FALSE to
just install any missing packages. Defaults to
TRUE.
silent
keep output as silent as possible. Defaults
to TRUE.
Value
The result is a list of packages cited in the scripts.

The function probably requires R 3.0.0 or above to make
use of the quiet argument when calling
install.packages. It is not clear what the
argument previously achieved in older versions of R.
