title: 'pikchr: R Wrapper for ''pikchr'' (PIC) Diagram Language'
version: 1.1.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.pikchr
abstract: An 'R' interface to 'pikchr' (<https://pikchr.org>, pronounced "picture"),
  a 'PIC'-like markup language for creating diagrams within technical documentation.
  Originally developed by Brian Kernighan, 'PIC' has been adapted into 'pikchr' by
  D. Richard Hipp, the creator of 'SQLite'. 'pikchr' is designed to be embedded in
  fenced code blocks of Markdown or other documentation markup languages, making it
  ideal for generating diagrams in text-based formats. This package allows R users
  to seamlessly integrate the descriptive syntax of 'pikchr' for diagram creation
  directly within the 'R' environment.
