reprex --help
 Usage: reprex [OPTIONS]                                                        

 Render reproducible examples of Python code for sharing. Your code will be     
 executed and the results will be embedded as comments below their associated   
 lines.                                                                         
 By default, your system's default command-line text editor will open for you   
 to type or paste in your code. This editor can be changed by setting the       
 EDITOR environment variable. You can instead specify an input file with the    
 --infile / -i option                                                           
 Additional markup will be added that is appropriate to the choice of venue     
 option. For example, for the default `gh` venue for GitHub Flavored Markdown,  
 the final reprex will look like:
