fvfmR 1.0.0 (2026-10-16)

• First CRAN release.
• fvfmR is now an R interface to the 'fvfmPy' Python package (>= 1.0.0). run_fvfm() opens the fvfmPy window, with or without a folder of .pim, .tif or .tiff images, and returns the logged observations to R as a data frame when the window is closed.
• fvfm_setup() creates the 'fvfm-env' Python environment and installs fvfmPy from PyPI, after asking for confirmation in interactive sessions. Running it again updates fvfmPy, including replacing pre-release builds from TestPyPI. Alternatively, use options(fvfmR.python = ...) to point to an existing Python environment.
• New fvfm_example() gives the path to two example .pim images.
• convert_pim() has been removed: fvfmPy reads .pim files directly.
• The package has been renamed from fvfm to fvfmR, to match fvfmPy.
