SNSFdatasets

Functions for downloading data from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF, FNS, SNSF). The package is lightweight and without dependencies. Downloaded data can optionally be cached, to avoid repeated downloads of the same files. There are also utilities for comparing different versions of datasets, i.e. to report added, removed and changed entries.
