I have a package with a division method for special objects of class "RoidataList", i.e. the function is named `/.RoidataList'. documentation for this is in the file "Divide.RoidataList". R CMD CHECK complains with: =================cut=====================* checking for code/documentation mismatches ... WARNING Functions/methods with usage in documentation object 'Divide.RoidataList' but not in code: / * checking Rd \usage sections ... WARNING Objects in \usage without \alias in documentation object 'Divide.RoidataList': / =================cut===================== the `usage' section in the Rd file reads =================cut=====================\usage{ x/y } =================cut===================== which, of course is the desired way to use the function. what am I doing wrong, i.e. how should I modify the Rd file? maybe obvious, but not to me. joerg van den hoff
