Exports a define file for the provided dataset

Dataset needs to be of format IQRdataGENERAL. The define file is exported in the Markdown format used in IQReport. It is humanly readable and ready to be converted to Word DOCX by the IntiQuan IQReport software. The main advantage of not directly creating a PDF file is the ease of manual editing in Word. If the IQReport software is installed on the computer, then additionally to the RMD file a WORD DOCX file is generated. More information on IQReport: (http://www.intiquan.com/iqreport-the-reporting-solution/). The execution of this function and the generation of the rmd file requires the presence of the IQReport R package on your R installation. The conversion of the rmd to a Word DOCX file additionally requires the IQReport windows or Linux executables to be installed on your computer. If you want to generate the define files, please check with IntiQuan to obtain the IQReport R package and also the IQReport executables.
