The package includes functionality to download the raw ASCII files for you, to parse the ASCII into a dataframe, and to build a panel based on user specifications. Specifications include subsampling from SRC, SEO, immigrant, or latino subsamples, as well as by head of household only. Finally, the user can specify a balanced panel or a panel consisting of individuals present for a specific number of years.

More testing is forthcoming in future distributions.
