  • rewrite majority of R code to be more consistent and logically coherent incl. lots of renamings; use consistent style (mostly tidyverse-compliant; but line width @ 160)

  • improve QSS installation for Windows by checking file access permissions; display a warning with more infos if permissions are insufficient (not admin)

  • improve QSS installation for Linux: ask interactively for administrator credentials by calling Polkit's pkexec and perform all admin-level actions in one go

  • improve/extend documentation; should be less confusing now for users who haven't heard about RStudio's QSS files before

  • improve/extend package title and description

  • update and convert README to R Markdown format (and generate README.md using devtools::build_readme()) to make use of RStudio 1.4's new Markdown canonicalization

  • needs testing on Windows! otherwise package should be more-or-less ready for a CRAN submission at this point (though we might want to tackle other issues first)

(obsolete leftover)
(wasn't really intentional to use it😅)
this is performed by Pandoc under the hood and only available in RStudio 1.4+, see https://rstudio.github.io/visual-markdown-editing/
and overhaul it to be more clear/precise
(RStudio's built-in auto-formatting broke the proper Markdown syntax 😒)
