R devel - May 2001 - Rcmd REMOVE does not allow --library argument (PR#957)

This is in Windows 98.  The problem exists in both rw1021 and rw1023, using
ActiveState Perl builds 620 and 626:

C:\>Rcmd REMOVE --library=C:/R/Rlibs RBMDS
Unknown option: library
Usage: Rcmd REMOVE [options] pkgs

Remove the add-on packages specified by pkgs from the default library
tree (/library) or the tree specified via `--library'.

Options:
  -l, --library=LIB     remove packages from library tree LIB
  -v, --version         print version info and exit

Report bugs to <r-bugs@r-project.org>.


The fix is to change line 37 in rw1023/bin/Remove:
from
my @knownoptions = ("help|h", "version|v");
to
my @knownoptions = ("help|h", "library|l:s",
"version|v");
