as noted in the PR note #ty for the issue filing! Now that there's better support for proxies under Windows for curl (and, hence, httr) I agree that it's a better way to go.
I just pushed up a change which swaps in httr
ops for download.file()
. Pls give it a go when you get a chance.
Looking good to me now!

Thanks for making this package available - it's working great for me when I read existing local files. However, I'm currently encountering an issue when when
read_docx
has url argument. Minimal reprex:It looks like the call to download.file is causing this issue
To workaround this I can use
mode = "wb"
An alternative workaround is using
httr
packageI thought I should raise this in case any other users have the same problem...
