shorten

This is a simple "chop" at k characters, no fancy truncation at
spaces or such. Optionally, this will make unique the resulting
truncated strings. That way, truncation at character 4 of
"Washington" and "Wash" and "Washingham" will not result in 3
values of "Wash", but rather "Wash", "Wash.1", and "Wash.2"

Tools for data importation, recoding, and inspection.
There are functions to create new project
folders, R code templates, create uniquely named output
directories, and to quickly obtain a visual summary for each
variable in a data frame.  The main feature here is the systematic
implementation of the "variable key" framework for data
importation and recoding.  We are eager to have community feedback
about the variable key and the vignette about it. In version 1.7,
the function 'semTable' is removed. It was deprecated since 1.67.
That is provided in a separate package, 'semTable'.
