linl 0.0.2: Couple improvements

Following up on the initial 0.0.1 release of linl, Aaron and I are happy to announce release 0.0.2 which reached the CRAN network on Sunday in a smooth 'CRAN-pretest-publish' auto-admittance. linl provides a simple-yet-powerful Markdown---and RMarkdown---wrapper around the venerable LaTeX letter class; see below for an expanded example also included as the package vignette.

This versions sets a few sensible default values for font, font size, margins, signature (non-)indentation and more; it also expands the documentation.

The NEWS entry follows:

Changes in tint version 0.0.2 (2017-10-29)

  • Set a few defaults for a decent-looking skeleton and template: font, fontsize, margins, left-justify closing (#3)

  • Blockquote display is now a default as well (#4).

  • Updated skeleton.Rmd and vignette source accordingly

  • Documented new default options (#5 and #6).

  • Links are now by default printed as footnotes (#9).

Courtesy of CRANberries, there is a comparison to the previous release. More information is on the tint page. For questions or comments use the issue tracker off the GitHub repo.
