## Description:

##      This is just an R interface to the python package excerpts (<URL:
##      https://pypi.python.org/pypi/excerpts>).
## 
## Details:
## 
##      You will probably only want to use 'excerptr', see there for a
##      usage example. All other functions documented are rather meant for
##      internal use.

excerptr needs python3, you probably want to have pandoc and a TeX-System such as TeXLive installed.
