Description: Provides an R interface to the 'tDelta' C++ library for
        parsing DELTA (DEscription Language for TAxonomy) format files
        <https://freedelta.sourceforge.net>. Supports loading character
        lists, item descriptions, and specifications, with efficient
        searching and matching of items based on character values. It
        also supports the generation of identification keys, diagnoses,
        natural-language descriptions, and clustering and ordination
        analyses by means of the DELTA programs 'CONFOR', 'KEY', and
        'DIST'.
