Errors related to path (~) on Windows about languagetoolr HOT 3 CLOSED

But I like the idea of this project, so I will see what I can do. Most probably, I will have more time for this in autumn.

On Windows, "~" resolves to "My Documents" folder. Thus, path.expand("~") should fix this issue.

In command line I use, arguments preceded by-- usually work as expected.

Thank you very much for this report, @GegznaV. I believe all of this problems are rooted in the fact that I wrote this package only with linux in mind.

1. quick_setup() has the default argument path = "~". I don't know how this resolves in windows.
2. languagetool() has the default argument executable = "java -jar ~/LanguageTool-4.6/languagetool-commandline.jar" which can not work on windows, I guess.
3. languagetool() maps R values to command line options and calls them with a leading -- (e.g. --language). That's also not a windows compatible syntax.

I'm sure there are ways to make the package compatible with windows as well. Do you have some time to prepare a PR? It's a bit tedious for me to do this as I personally don't own a windows system.

I will split this issue to 2 parts: path related (this one, #2) and JSON related (#5)
