Changes in version 0.3.2 (2024-06-16)                  

This version of 'BayLum' requires R>=4.1.x!

New functions

create_DataFile()

This function attempts to ease the very pain-stacking process of input
data processing (BIN/BINX files) so that it can be used in the 'BayLum'
modelling. The function is an entirely new development and will replace
the functions Generate_DataFile_MG() and Generate_DataFile() in future
versions of 'BayLum'. Key features:

  - Only one function for single-grain and multiple-grain data
  - Support for BIN/BINX and XSYG files and RLum.Analysis-class objects,
    i.e. the data can be imported independently of the data file
    creation
  - A new single-file configuration based on the YAML format. This makes
    the old error-prone folder structure obsolete
  - Various internal consistency checks to avoid input data are
    erroneousness; which may lead to very hard to-track-down error
    messages
  - Carries information about the number of samples and the sample names

plot_RegDosePoints()

  - The function will replace the deprecated fucntion LT_RegenDose(),
    which was too error-prone and complicated to maintain.

write_YAMLConfigFile()

This function supplements create_DataFile() supporting auto-generated
YAML config template files

Bugfixes and changes

Age_OSLC14()

  - Determines the sample name automatically by default.

Age_Computation()

  - Determines the sample name automatically by default.

AgeS_Computation()

  - Determines the sample name automatically by default.

  - Now preserves the originator attribute

SCMatrix()

  - Interactive mode is now more beautiful and consistently

  - Add dependencies to the packages 'yaml' and 'cli'

  - Bump version requirement for 'Luminescence' to >= v0.9.22

  - Add new external files example.yml and yaml_config_reference.yml

  - Internal datasets DATA1, DATA2, DATA3 were updated to be consistent
    with the new function create_DataFile()

versions of BayLum

  - Generate_DataFile()
  - Generate_DataFile_MG()
