Utility functions that may be of general interest but are specifically required by the 'NeuroAnatomy Toolbox' ('nat'). Includes functions to provide a basic make style system to update files based on timestamp information, file locking and 'touch' utility. Convenience functions for working with file paths include 'abs2rel', 'split_path' and 'common_path'. Finally there are utility functions for working with 'zip' and 'gzip' files including integrity tests.
An R package containing utility functions to support the NeuroAnatomy Toolbox (nat)
This package provides support functions for the nat NeuroAnatomy Toolbox package. Some functions may nevertheless be of general interest. See the reference manual on CRAN for a for full function listing.
From CRAN- the recommended option for simplicity and since this package is not under heavy development:
install.packages("nat.utils")
Straight from github with Hadley Wickham's devtools package:
if(!require("devtools")) install.packages("devtools")devtools::install_github('nat.utils','jefferis')
Note: Windows users need Rtools to install in this way.
