A px object.

out_dir

Directory to save px files in.

keyword_values

Optional. A data frame with column 'variable' and one or more of: 'px_contents', 'px_title', 'px_description', and 'px_matrix'. The columns will be added as keywords to the table for each non-HEADING variable that match the 'variable' column. It probably work for other keywords as well.

Use the column 'filename' to control the filename of each micro file. The filename path is relative to 'out_dir'.

Use the column 'language' if the px file has multiple languages.

The HEADING variables are use in all the micro files, and a file is created for each non-HEADING variable. The new px files are saved in a directory specified by out_dir.

The main loop uses the furrr package for parallelisation. Use future::plan() to choose how to parallelise.
