[Rd] Suggestion: Clarification in Rd for utils::getAnywhere()
In order to clarify that getAnywhere(str) where str is a character string object, will look for object with name "str" and not the value of 'str', I suggest the following Rd updated for utils::getAnywhere(): Update the argument list: \item{x}{a [literal] character string or name.} The term 'literal character string' is used in library(). Add to the example code: str <- "format.dist" do.call("getAnywhere", list(str)) Alternatively, getAnywhere() should gain an argument 'character.only' as in library(). /Henrik
