include_graphics function not functioning

[ThomasPepperz]

The include_graphics function does not seem to play nicely. I noticed the commit message "add support for include_graphics, maybe?"

Code:

knitr::include_graphics("~/Sentencing/Graphics/CookCounty_Race_ACS.png")

Error message:

using the knitr function for graphics I have gotten it to work with double back slashes like such:

knitr::include_graphics("~\\Sentencing\\Graphics\\CookCounty_Race_ACS.png")
