Perhaps the > > Suggests: class > line in the DESCRIPTION needs to be more explicit?maybe, because this is only written down in the file "PACKAGES" (http://cran.r- project.org/bin/windows/contrib/PACKAGES). when i invoke help(mda), i cannot find this hint. also, your hint where "classes" can be found found would be good. cu till -- "I have seen things you people wouldn''t believe.
