#' Simplified loading and installing of packages
#'
#' This is a wrapper to \code{\link{require}} and \code{\link{install.packages}}.
#' Specifically, this will first try to load the package(s) and if not found
#' it will install then load the packages. Additionally, if the
#' \code{update=TRUE} parameter is specified it will check the currently
#' installed package version with what is available on CRAN (or mirror) and
#' install the newer version.
#'
#' @param pkgs a character vector with the names of the packages to load.

form-data vs -urlencoded

Nice answer on stackoverflow to the question of when to use one or the other content-types for POSTing data, viz. application/x-www-form-urlencoded and multipart/form-data.

“The moral of the story is, if you have binary (non-alphanumeric) data (or a significantly sized payload) to transmit, use multipart/form-data. Otherwise, use application/x-www-form-urlencoded.”


Matt Bridges' answer in full:

The MIME types you mention are the two Content-Type headers for HTTP POST requests that user-agents (browsers) must support. The purpose of both of those types of requests is to send a list of name/value pairs to the server. Depending on the type and amount of data being transmitted, one of the methods will be more efficient than the other. To understand why, you have to look at what each is doing
