OS X Screencast to animated GIF

Instructions

To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:

wch

if (!require(quantmod)) {
  stop("This app requires the quantmod package. To install it, run 'install.packages(\"quantmod\")'.\n")
}

# Download data for a stock if needed, and return the data
require_symbol <- function(symbol, envir = parent.frame()) {
  if (is.null(envir[[symbol]])) {
    envir[[symbol]] <- getSymbols(symbol, auto.assign = FALSE)
  }
