+**Note:** There are some changes in recent versions of RStudio that messed up the behavior of the python bindings through `reticulate`. If you wish to access python-based parsers (e.g. aston or rainbow) through a recent version of RStudio, you will need to change the default settings. To do this, open `Tools:Global Options...:Python` and uncheck the box that says `Automatically activate project-local Python environments`. Then restart RStudio.
