R help - Mar 2012 - package.skeleton only exports the first 73 lines of code

Hi all, apologies for the ignorance I'm about to describe:

I'm trying to create a .r file for a function I've written (~300 lines
of
code).  The function is called 'total' and I've entered the most
simple
package.skeleton:

package.skeleton(name="test", list=c("total")) 

The export works fine (it creates sub folders for R, man, and DESCRIPTION,
NAMESPACE and read-and-delete-me files, but  total.r is only 73 lines long
and the code stops in the middle of a phrase.

Is there a character limit to the export, or am I failing to do something
more complicated here? 

Thanks,
Jeff

Are you sure?

What happens if you just paste the code into the file and source() the 
file afterwards? Can you make the function available (again ins ome text 
file on the web and tell us where the function exactly ends?
