Examples
# create two files in a temprary folder "test_folder"
t1 <- system.file("extdata", "test.TextGrid", package = "phonfieldwork")
t2 <- system.file("extdata", "post.TextGrid", package = "phonfieldwork")
tdir <- tempdir()
file.copy(c(t1, t2), tdir)
#> [1] TRUE TRUE
# here are two .wav files in a folder
list.files(tdir)
