High-Performance Open-Source Archive
A set of functions to locate some programs available on the user machine. It can locate 'Node.js', 'npm', 'LibreOffice', 'Microsoft Word', 'Microsoft PowerPoint', 'Microsoft Excel', 'Python', 'pip', 'Mozilla Firefox', 'Google Chrome', 'Air' and 'Pandoc'. The user can test the availability of a program, optionally with a required version, and call it with the functions system2() or system(). This allows the use of a single function to retrieve the path to a program regardless of the operating system and its configuration.
