New features
update_variable_labels_with(), it is now possible to access the variable
name inside .fn by using names() (#163)var_label() gets new options "na" and "empty" for null_actionNew features
null_action argument to val_labels(), val_label() and a
.null_action argument to set_value_labels(), add_value_labels() and
remove_value_labels() (#145)update_variable_labels_with() and update_value_labels_with()
allowing to update variable/value labels with a custom function (#153)Bug fix
print.look_for() when console pane is physically shrunk
too small (#148)recode.haven_labelled() when .x contains NA and
.combine_value_labels = TRUE (#151)New features
label_attribute(), get_label_attribute() and
set_label_attribute() to manipulate the "label" attribute on any
object (#142)get_variable_labels(), get_value_labels(), get_na_values()
and get_na_range() identical to var_label(), val_labels(), na_values()
and na_range(), respectivelyto_character() method for data frames (#140)Improvements
set_value_labels(), add_value_labels(), remove_value_labels(),
set_variable_labels(), set_na_range() and set_na_values() can now be
applied on a vector (#126)null_action for var_label() when applied on a
data frame (#131)look_for() now returns "missing" (number of NAs) by default (#133)Bug fixes
print.look_for() (#135)unlabelled() for classic vectors, now remained unchanged (#137)look_for() now accepts survey objects (#121)look_for() when no keyword is provided (#116)user_na_to_tagged_na() (#114)look_for() improvements:
look_for_and_select() (#87)look_for() can now search within factor levels and value labels (#104)improvements for tagged NAs:

tagged_na_to_regular_na()explicit_tagged_na in to_factor() and to_character()unique_tagged_na(), duplicated_tagged_na(),
order_tagged_na(), sort_tagged_na() (#90, #91)other improvements:
is_user_na() and is_regular_na()na_range() or na_values() to a factor
will now produce an errorforeign_to_labelled() for Stata files (#100)recode_if() for recoding values based on condition, variable
and value labels being preserved (#82)look_for() could be time consuming for big data frames. Now, by default,
only basic details of each variable are computed. You can compute all details
with details = "full" (#77)look_for() results has been updated and do not rely anymore
on pillar (#85)to_labelled() can properly manage factors whose levels are coded as
"[code] level", as produced by to_factor(levels = "prefixed")
(#74 @courtiol)is_prefixed() to check if a factor is prefixedna_range<- and na_values<- when applied to a data.frame (#80).values argument has been added to set_na_values() and set_na_range(),
allowing to pass a list of values.strict option has been added to set_variable_labels(),
set_value_labels(), add_value_labels(), remove_value_labels(),
set_na_values() and set_na_range(),
allowing to pass values for columns not observed in the data (it could be useful
for using a same list of labels for several data.frame sharing some
variables) (#70)copy_labels() is less restrictive for non labelled vectors, copying variable label
even if the two vectors are not of the same type (#71).strict option has been added to copy_labels() (#71)look_for() has been redesigned:
look_for() now returns a tibblelookfor_to_long_format() to convert results with one row per factor level
and per value labelconvert_list_columns_to_character() to convert list columns to
simpler character vectorsgenerate_dictionary() is an equivalent of look_for()set_variable_labels, set_value_labels, add_value_labels,
and remove_value_labels now accept "tidy dots" (#67 @psanker)names_prefixed_by_values() to get the names of a vector

and na_range() have been updated accordingly (#37)to_factor() bug fix then applied on a data.frame (#33)update_labelled() bug fix then applied on a data.frame (#31)haven, labelled() and labelled_spss() now
produce objects with class "haven_labelled" and "haven_labelled_spss", due
to conflict between the previous "labelled" class and the "labelled" class
used by Hmisc.update_labelled() could be used to convert data imported
