readJDX reads files in the JCAMP-DX format used in the field of spectroscopy. A recent overhaul has made it much more robust, and as such the version is now at 0.4.29.1 Most of the changes were internal, but three important user-facing changes are:

  • improved documentation
  • the addition of more vignettes
  • improved output when debug > 0
  • 2D NMR files are now handled

You can see more about the package here. As always, if you use the package and have troubles, please file an issue. The JCAMP-DX standard is challenging and vendors have a lot of flexibility, so please do share any problematic files you encounter.


  1. The current version also includes changes in an unreleased version (0.3.372) in which several bugs were squashed.↩ī¸Ž
