Installation

Initial ideas

in a way that can be configured. Things we might want to display:

• current time
• memory used pryr::mem_used
• current working directory, maybe slightly differently when it's not the directory of the current rstudio project
• are we developping a package ? Do we need to rebuild it ?
• are we sync with github
• R version
• ...
• (please add your own with PR)
