Sendkeys R package for Windows
Use remotes to install directly from Github:
# using package remotes:
remotes::install_github("miraisolutions/winsendkeys")In case you are behind a proxy, you can configure this first:
# accessing Github's API over https, while using a http-proxy:
Sys.setenv(https_proxy="http://<username>:<password>@<ip>:<port>")The package exports two main functions, activateWindow and sendKeys.
