please_install

A polite helper for installing and update packages (quite exactly)
inspired from a function used by Hadley Wickham at `RStudio::conf
2018 - San Diego`.

Pigna [_pìn'n'a_] is the Italian word for pine cone.  In
jargon, it is used to identify a task which is boring, banal,
annoying, painful, frustrating and maybe even with a not so beautiful
or rewarding result, just like the obstinate act of trying to
challenge yourself in extracting pine nuts from a pine cone, provided
that, in the end, you will find at least one inside it. Here you can
find a backpack of functions to be used to solve small everyday
problems of coding or analyzing (clinical) data, which would be
normally solved using quick-and-dirty patches. You will be able to
convert 'Hmisc' and 'rms' summary()es into data.frames ready to be
rendered by 'pander' and 'knitr'. You can access easy-to-use wrappers
to activate essential but useful progress bars (from 'progress') into
your loops or functionals. Easy setup and control Telegram's bots
(from 'telegram.bot') to send messages or to divert error messages to
a Telegram's chat. You also have some utilities helping you in the
development of packages, like the activation of the same user
interface of 'usethis' into your package, or call polite functions to
ask a user to install other packages. Finally, you find a set of
thematic sets of packages you may use to set up new environments
quickly, installing them in a single call.
