Started building again on my #writerdeck. This time with a staggered keyboard (could not get used to the ortho-linear board). This is a test print to see if various parts fit. Need to make some tweaks, of course.

At the subway station. Observing.
Does anyone know an easy way to install all dependencies listed in a DESCRIPTION file in an #rstats package? Preferably using only base R or bash?
