Ever wish your R pipelines talked back? 📣

logrittr adds a verbose pipe (%>=%) that logs what’s happening at every step—rows, columns, changes, and timing—without touching your dplyr code.

Great for debugging, teaching, or just understanding your data flow.

R 4.6.0 "Because it was There" is set for release on 24 April 2026.

%notin% is now in base R, summary() handles character columns more neatly, and list.files() gets a fixed = TRUE argument so you no longer need to escape dots in patterns.

Having gotten my head fully around R pipes, I feel I need to write an article about it before I forget the fiddly details:

|>, %>%, with(), lambdas, %$%, ...

there are a lot of clever tricks for edge cases! (The with() hack I should have figured out for myself though!)

Also, %$% -- the exposition pipe -- why didn't any of you tell me about this one!?!? You're slacking!
