[R] (minor) R syntax error in help page to the function makeCluster of library(snow)
Dear list, I just realized that one of the examples given in the help page to the function makeCluster of the library(snow) has a small syntax error : ## to get started library(snow) ?makeCluster .. will open a halp page containing the command towards the end of the examples : cl <- makeCluster(c(rep(list(macOptions), 2), rep(list(lnxOptions), 2), rep(list(winOptions), 2), type = "SOCK") .. which is missing a closing parenthesis. For the rest I'd like to congratulate the developpers of this library for the great job they have done !!

Use the maintainer() function to get his email. Cheers, Michael
