## Dependencies

Python 3.7+ and the following libraries:
* PySimpleGUI
* appdirs

Optional requirement:
* rpy2 >=3.4
* markdown >=3.0


## Rendering Rmd File (work in progress)

To render Rmd files directly via the *RExam-Item-Editor*, you need 
a functioning installation of *R* including the *R*-package `exams`. 

If you don't use the Windows executable, install the Python-package `rpy2` (`pip install rpy2`). 

Windows user find two executable files for *RExam-Item-Editor*, one with
and one without *R* rendering support. *RExam-Item-Editor* with 
rendering does not work on computers  without a *R* installation.
