Hr

The goal of Hr is to provide a native R binding to the tech tip provdied below:

All credit for the invention of this approach goes to @Michael1979

Installation

This package will probably not be released on CRAN. It can be installed from github using devtools:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github('thomasp85/Hr')

Example

After installation the Addins dropdown should contain an Insert H entry:

Simply click on this to insert an "H" at the current position of the cursor.

If you would like to use a shortcut, it is easy to add this by finding the addin in the keyboard shortcut menu and assign, say Shift+h to it.

Now, every time you press Shift and h at the same time, an uppercase h will get inserted at the cursor position

Roadmap

• It could be nice to cache the uppercase h character so that the wikipedia page was not downloaded and parsed every time
• Possible extension to handle other upper case letters
