R/define.R

#' Create FDA-style dataset and program definitions.
#'
#' \pkg{define} helps you create 'define.pdf' and associated file tree
#' for FDA-style submission of analysis datasets, etc.
#' It converts csv files to SAS Transport V. 5 'xpt' format,
#' using metadata encoded in a specification file. It enforces
#' the 'txt' extension for other (presumably ASCII) files.
#'
#' The only function you're likely to need from \pkg{define} is
#' \code{\link{define}}. You may want to learn more about
#' metadata encoding from \pkg{encode} and more about 
#' specification files from \pkg{spec}.
