Maybe use openxlsx instead of xlsx to remove java dependency #169

This will be down the road as it's tested and integrated into R moreso.

Note not available for OSX

Don't count it out - it takes a little while for the Mac binaries to get built and the package was uploaded ... yesterday. With that said you replace the Java dependency with an Rcpp dependency so now the users would need build tools (Rtools or XCode...)

Dasonk commented 10 years ago

Doesn't openNLP also have an rJava dependency so you're not going to get away from Java anyways.

Ahh True.
