BrailleR (version 0.29.1)

WriteR: Getting started with WriteR

Description

The WriteR application was written in wxPython so that blind users can process Rmarkdown documents. This functionality is offered because RStudio is not an accessible application for screen reader users.

Usage

WriteR(file = NULL, math = c("webTeX", "MathJax"))

PrepareWriteR(Author = getOption("BrailleR.Author"))

Arguments

Author

Your name as you want it to appear in the default text that starts your R markdown documents.

file

The filename you want started. Not implemented yet.

math

The style for mathematical content in HTML documents created using LaTeX input. Not yet implemented.

Value

NULL. This function is for your convenience and not for doing any work inside an R session.

Details

WriteR needs python 2.7 and wxPython 2.8 to run. Error handling for users without these packages installed is not yet incorporated in the functions.

The PrepareWriteR() function writes the settings file (called WriteROptions) for WriteR and copies the files that were part of the BrailleR installation into the current working directory. You will be able to run the WriteR application from there, or move to a folder of your choosing.
