Link to the babette R package suite in ips::rbeauti #7

Dear dr Heibl,

I feel ips is a good generalist R package, allowing to work with many phylogenetic tools. For example, the ips::rbeauti function creates a general BEAUti XML file, to be used by BEAST2.

I suggest to add a link in the ips::rbeauti documentation to a specialized R package suite [1] to work with BEAST2 called babette [2] (disclaimer: I wrote that package suite), so that people that want to do something more specialized than ips::rbeauti can better find this package.

If you agree, I volunteer to create a Pull Request with this suggestion, but if you prefer to do it yourself, would also be fine.

Do you agree this is a good idea?

Cheers, Richel Bilderbeek
