Hello, I'm trying to port the S package "print.display" to R. The porting procedure seemed to work, but when I say library(print.display) or library("print.display"), then none of the functions is available. May be, it's because of the dot in the package name? What could have happened? The help information is available. BTW: How can I look up wether the package is really loaded?

How and where did you install the package? Using the R INSTALL mechanism or by hand? Is it in the library search path .lib.loc?
