    (devel/R-xfun) Updated 0.18 to 0.19

    # CHANGES IN xfun VERSION 0.19

    ## NEW FEATURES

    - Added functions `bg_process()` to run a command in a background
      process, and `proc_kill()` to kill a process.

    - Added a function `del_empty_dir()` to delete a directory if it is
      empty.

    - Added functions `is_abs_path()` and `is_rel_path()` to check if
      paths are absolute or relative.

    - Added a function `is_sub_path()` to test if a path is under a
      directory.

    - Added a function `is_web_path()` to test if a path is a web path
      that starts with `http://` or `https://` or `ftp://` or `ftps://`.

    - Documented and exported the previously internal functions
      `dir_exists()` and `file_exists()` (thanks, @cderv, #36).

    - Added a function `dir_create()` to create a directory recursively by
      default when it does not exist.

    - Added an argument `fail` to `Rscript_call()` to allow users to
      customize the error message when an error occurred in calling the
      function in a new R session.

    ## MINOR CHANGES

    - `file_ext()`, `sans_ext()`, and `with_ext()` no longer use
      `tools::file_ext()` or `tools::file_path_sans_ext()`, but provide a
      slightly different implementation. They treat `tar.(gz|bz2|xz)` and
      `nb.html` as file extensions, and also allow extensions to contain a
      trailing `~` or `#`.
