I am building a package. I discovered that all \usage{} and
\examples{} in the .Rd file that are too long to fit on the .dvi page
are left as is. They run over the edge of the page and just keep on
going.
I propose that a WARNING or ERROR be generated as part of Rcmd check
for such cases.
The "test <-" line and both "test(" lines below are
single lines.
My mailer folds at about 100 characters.
