libinstandload: Library Auto-installation and loading

In EmilBode/EmilMisc: Miscellaneous Functions I Found Useful

Description

One combined function to load (multiple) packages, and automatically install them if needed

Usage

libinstandload(..., order = FALSE, verbose = FALSE, extras = TRUE)

Arguments

...	list of packages to install
order	logical specifying whether packages should be loaded in order. If TRUE, first argument is loaded first (so comes last in search()) if FALSE, R tries to load packages first, then installs any misses, so new packages are on top. FALSE is slightly faster
verbose	logical, whether to print messages from require and install.package
extras	logical. Some packages need extra initialization, e.g. extrafonts needs to install fonts. Should extra initializations be done on installation? Note that initiliazation scripts are added on an ad-hoc basis, and is not complete. In this first version. it is only implemented for 'extrafont'
