Plain Text Documents

Description

Create plain text documents.

Usage

PlainTextDocument(x = character(0),
                  author = character(0),
                  datetimestamp = as.POSIXlt(Sys.time(), tz = "GMT"),
                  description = character(0),
                  heading = character(0),
                  id = character(0),
                  language = character(0),
                  origin = character(0),
                  ...,
