I don't think this is needed for this function
| #' | ||
| #' @param entry either full url (character), gist ID (numeric or character of | ||

I think it should source all files by default (if that's not too tricky) - that's why I suggested vectorising source_url

A problem is that a entry of the gist can contain different types of files, so maybe one is *.R, the other is *.txt.
But as the gist wisely identify the type of file, maybe we can wisely detect and source only *.R. I will check if it is possible.

One way is to download tar.gz that contains all entries, extract it, inspect the extension, and run the file if it is *.R.
Not sure which way is most convenient.
What do you think?

Ok, good point. Let's leave it as is.
