Recent RStudio builds support user-created 'addins' (e.g., the RMarkdown word count addin).

It may be useful to create one for SpaDES users to facilitate module creation.

  1. create a new module (a simple wrapper around newModule that prompts the user for module name, and path). [IMPLEMENTED]
  2. add template code for a new event (saves the user having to copy/paste/modify existing events
  3. several shiny gadgets could also be useful for creating visual representations of a user's module code

@eliotmcintire I'll add more ideas as they come to me. Feel free to edit this issue to add ideas of your own.

implemented copyModule in 93e384b.

once defineEvent (#316) is done, it can be made into an addin too.
