We are happy to announce a new release of littler.

A few minor things have changes since the last release:

• A few new examples were added or updated, including use of the fabulous new docopt package by Edwin de Jonge which makes command-line parsing a breeze.
• Other new examples show simple calls to help with sweave, knitr, roxygen2, Rcpp‘s attribute compilation, and more.
• We also wrote an entirely new webpage with usage example.
• A new option -d | --datastdin was added which will read stdin into a data.frame variable X.
• The repository has been move to this GitHub repo.
• With that, the build process was updated both throughout but also to reflect the current git commit at time of build.

Full details are provided at the ChangeLog

The code is available via the GitHub repo, from tarballs off my littler page and the local directory here. A fresh package will got to Debian’s incoming queue shortly as well.

Comments and suggestions are welcome via the mailing list or issue tracker at the GitHub repo.
