R devel - Jun 2005 - documentation source diff...

Hi, I forgot the name of the function 'colSums', and expected to be able
to find it through the 'see also' section of the documentation for the
'sum' function.

Here is the diff I made of the altered documentation to facilitate this
action... (p.s. I made the diff on the R-2.1.0 source).


diff sum.Rd src/library/base/man/sum.Rd --context=2
*** sum.Rd      2005-06-03 20:24:22.468224056 +0100
--- src/library/base/man/sum.Rd 2005-04-18 22:30:27.000000000 +0100
***************
*** 33,38 ****

Good idea, I think it might be worth to be added to ?apply as well.

You don't want "\code" twice...

Some suggestions for further contributions:

- you want to use diff with option -u
- you want to use the original file as first argument and the changed 
file as second argument to diff.
